Unhappy Turn Signal Failure

I recently lost my right turn signal driving down the interstate (one of the plastic clips was broke) and had to buy a new lense. Well as you know when you have a blown bulb or a missing one, in my case, the turn signal failure kicks in and it flashes faster on the side with the problem. Well I replaced the lense and bulb, but it still flashes rapidly. I don't know what is wrong. I tried replacing the bulb that came with the lense with a new one and the one from the driver side (which works normal), but it still flashes rapidly. What could be the problem and a solution to fix it?

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Michael

I have located the problem and fixed it. The car was previously wrecked and the mechanic got the wiring backwards when he was fixing the turn signal. I rewired it and now it is working fine.

Thanks
