Turn signal lights in the rear work when nothing else is on. When I push the brake pedal they flash very rapidly. When I have the headlights on and turn on the signal lights all of the light blink. Even the license plate lights. Can you help me. I have changed the bulbs.

Could be 2 issues. Are the alarm and central locking affected?

I have seen problems with the comfort control system modules. Leaving signal lights on.

If your signals flash faster while the park lights or brake lights are on, then you might have a wiring / ground problem.
