What that rapid turn signal on the dash means is, the rear turn signal tail light is burnt out. This is how you know the bulb is bad. Replace the burnt out tail light bulb and you will be back to normal.

07 Impala rear driver side brake light and turn signal does not work, but when I checked the bulb it was working just not when I press the brake. The left turn signal on the dash also blinks rapidly.

Sounds like a possible bad ground connection.
Make sure the contacts for the bulb are clean.
Make sure the cround connection is not corroded.

I have sourced out all fuses and bulbs, yet continue to have a rapid right turn signal. I don't know where else to look. help?

replace the right rear bulb. the quick flashing indicates a bad bulb. it could be a wiring problem to the rear for the signal light that you will have to check out starting at the socket and working forward.

My right rear turn signal does nor work. It flashes rapidly. I replaced the bulb and it still does the same thing. Is there a flasher unit under the dash that I might have to replace?

make sure both signal lights work front and back if so then there is a signal flasher that will need replacing,it is located at or on the fuse panel under the dash on the drivers side.if you turn on the hazard lights you can find it under the dash and you will know what the signal one looks like also this will allow you to change the correct one and not the hazard flasher that some people tend to do thinking that they changed the right one only they have changed the wrong one.

Left rear brake,signal donot work,right rear side works,when i turn lever to make left turn,lite on dash board,blinks rapidly, replaced bulb and checked fuse

Most likely a bad multifunction switch (turn signal switch), try wiggling the turn signal lever while it is turned to the left and see ifit ever works.This is extremely common problem on fords,but not the only one, could also be a broken wire ,bad ground or a bad light socket.

Looking for location of turn signal breaker unit, left turn signal flashing rapidly

its not the fuse, its either the front or rear lamp is out on that side left or right, or if pulling a trailer you need a heavy-duty flasher unit because this makes the same kind of fast flash problem due to more lamps operated at the same time

1998 Buick Century Signal Issue

Remove the bulbs one at a time and check for dirt and corrosion at the contacs inside the sockets.The corrosion will cause higher than normal resistence and will make the signal to flash rapidly.As this only happens to the right side only check the right side.
