Default Turn Signal Slow

Got my first xj it has a slow driver side turn signal. It affects both the rear and front driver turn signal. However the passenger side seems to work at a normal speed which is faster than the driver side.

Should i expect the issue to be the flasher relay in the fuse box? Or could one of the bulbs be dying?

Switch the turn signal relay with the hazard relay, if they work better than its the relay.

Has anyone figured out which electronic relay can be used in place of the stock mechanical relay? Thank you. JB

If you don't know what he's talking about you should probably go check your relay fluid like right now... probably never been serviced before. Synthetic is the way to go btw.
