Rapid turn signal

My 97 F150 has a rapid blinking left turn signal. The rear light blinks, the front does not and the indicator on the dash does not light at all. The right signal works just fine. Any thoughts?

Usually when you have a fast blinking light it is because you have the front light burnt out. That should be the fix for the rapid blink but as far as the interior display I am not for sure if they are led or a light, but anyway if very well could be out as well.

See what's wrong with the front light. If you fix it, everything else will probably straighten out.

Rich,

Does the left brake and high mount stop light work?

If not, you likely have a poor connection at the turn signal connector in the steering column. Remove the plastic covers on the column and find the plug that connects the harness to the plastic connector. Check for a good tight fit.
