2008 Malibu Classic LT....The lights come on, but it won't blink with the signal on. The blinker clicks very fast right now. I'm assuming there's a flasher module somewhere I can buy? Nothing comes up when I look under that category on advance auto, or autozone.

Did you by chance replace the bulb recently?

A bulb is definitely burned out.

Ok, I can swap the bulb easily enough, but why would it work when the lights are turned on, just not work when it's supposed to flash? That doesn't make sense to me.

There may be two filaments in the bulb and only one is burnt out.

Cool, I wasn't sure how that worked, I'll just snag a new bulb.:D
