Same thing happened to me. Just change the bulb, it'll go back to how it was. NO it's not your fuses or anything like that, just change the bulb with a new one.

The same thing happened to me when I drove the Pathfinder. The problem was with the blinker mechanism in the dash and not the bulbs. It cost me like $150 to get it fixed.

Re: thx
No no, its probably not the rear bulb.. lol. It's another bulb associated with that side blinker. If your rear bulb is blinking fast, your front blinker could be out.

listen to what Zum said, chances are if its blinking its fine. Check the front end or better yet, put your hazards on and walk around the car.
