Default 00 es300 turn light problem

Both my front left and rear left signal lights have a problem. They both went much dimmer than normal and the left turn signal blinks real fast. Problems with both lights occured at the same time. Anybody know what's the problem and how to fix.

Try replacing the bulb and it's socket.

Most of the time it's just the front turn signal bulb. This bulb( amber) is double filaments, so it use as corner light and turn signal at the same time. You will see the front turn signal light is blinking, but one of the filament is gone.
Just remove the plastic clips the hold the black plastic cover around the head light. Then you will see one philip screw, remove the screw and gently pry out the turn signal len. Replace the bulb, check make sure it's work and you're done.

Alot of the time what i have seen is just a bad connection on the front light and if you hit it a couple times with the light blinking it should fix the blinking fast problem.
