    My Zed has a strange issue. When I indicate to turn left the indicator blink rate is twice as fast as when I indicate to turn right. What controls this and why is it different from one side to the other?

    Help from the gurus requested!

    Cheers Tim

    generally this means that you have a blown bulb on the fast flashing side

    Not Z specific I didn't think??? Happens on all cars???

    Agree with Mike, put your hazard lights on and check all are working.
