Yesterday I replaced the bulbs in my front passenger turn signal of my 2001 XJ and now it blinks twice as fast. I put OEM replacements in, so what happened?

Any help would be great.

Was it the correct buld for that application?

 

was it a double or single element bulb,is the light or indicator on dash blinking this way.

 

I'll check the # of filaments when I get home from work. I replaced all of the bulbs up front(front and side marker) at once since passenger front and driver side markers were out. Driver's side lights are fine.

It's the indicator and the actual light blinking double time.

usually when the dash indicator blinks twice as fast as it should that indicates bad bulb or bad connection at bulbs, turn the sgnal on and check for bulb operation should be first to check

 

The bulb is not properly connected or problem with the turn signal relay...

 

Well I looked with lens casings off. They're dual filament, one filament wasn't working and it wasn't seated right. Everything is good now.

I feel kind of like an idiot.
Thanks guys.
