I had this problem once.. May not be yours but here goes.
I had really fast flashing lights and noticed that my
flasher was getting extremely hot and eventually frying.
If you have fiddled with the ground and hot lead to the
lights make sure you but them back the right way. I
realized that I had them backwards and the problem was
fixed when I switched them back.
Also, when indicating left the
