Default Turn signal blinking fast have led taillights and light bar!!!!help!!!

HEY everyone happy holidays i havent been on in awhile but i really appreciate everyones input so here is my new problem

i have always had LED taillights and a LED tailgate light bar and never had a problem with the turn signals blinking very fast and not blinking on the light themselves but today i changed taillights because i sent a pair to be blacked out and i put them in today and now the r staying solid when the turn signals are on and the front turn signal and signal in my mirrors blink very fast! the taillights i put in are exactly the same as the old LED taillights so i dont no why all of a sudden this is happening so i was hoping someone out there could help me with this problem thank you soooo much , Zach

I'd unplug the taillight and make sure that all of the taillight plugs are clean with no corrosion. Faulty grounds can do some crazy things. You should see my plow lights... The headlight blinks when I turn on the blinker and the blinker blinks equal and opposite to the headlight and the rest of the blinkers!

a shot in the dark but, I'd check each bulb install. I have seen a few installed backward which caused simular results.

try a diffrent flasher also......this is a common flasher issue...also check all connections. Do all lights flash? some flashers will do this if a light is not flashing.

Thanx everybody i'm really appreciating the help , the only thing is the tail lights are there own seperate unit so it doesnt take bulbs just the connection part so TASUTT2009 u might be right i was checking that when i reinstalled them

Chris i was thinking about that also but my only problem is trying to find the damn flasher lol

well it depends on what year it is but mine on my 97 is down in the junction box under the dash (it runs the turn signals and hazards) I found mine by accident last year...lol they dont look like regular flashers either they look more like relays. Hope this helps.
