The right turn signals on my 93 ES300 is blinking very fast. THe left turn signal is fine. When I turn on the hazards, they blink at a normal rate. Could it be a relay somewhere, if so, where are the relays. or do the bulb just need replacing? I read a few posts here about this problem but no resolution is posted. Please help.

dude just replace the turn signal bulb. thats you problem. If it continues after the change then the contacts in the socket need to be pulled a little with tweezers/pliers. I had to do it on my 97 es 300.

that happens after a while.
basically do what jaymode said. it's just either a connection between the socket and the bulb, or the bulb is burnt out. just check em.

Just remember, the burned out bulb could be any one in the circuit. Check all of your bulbs for a burned out one. The flash rate requires that all bulbs in inserted and working; otherwise it goofs the on time or off time.

dude, if u can get the other one to blink really fast too, then you'd be set. My car does that. I have no idea why, but both turn signals blink super fast. I actually like it.

I concur with jaymode.
I too had to replace a front left turn signal bulb lately because it was out. 97 ES also.
Noticed left turn signal blinking very fast.
Checked both sides and front and back and noticed the front left bulb not as bright but still working.
Once it was replaced the turn signal went back to normal speed.

Jaymode hit it on the head.

How do I replace a front turn signal bulb on my '97 Lexus ES 300? I can't see how to access it. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

i did it a while back . I think there is small screw holding the coner lamp inplace . Remove it and slid the corner lamp out . Be care full becasue there are plastics mounts that rest inside the fender (hold the corner lamp in place dont want to break them ). Then twist the bulb out and replace !

you also need to remove the plastic cover held in by those little plastic things, that are kinda like rivets, thats the only way to get to the screw then just grab the whole housing and yank it out. The just twist out the bulb.
