OK Guys here is the update I put the original bulbs back and had the same issue. I found it was the RH brake light that wasnt working. I swopped it with the LH one and both worked. I am assumong a bad contact so cleaned all the contacts replaced the old bulbs and now all is ok. Thanks again for the advice. It was much appreciated

Regards
Steve

I have sorted it. I put the original bulbs back and still had the fast flashing LH indicators but noticed that the rear RH brake light was not working. I took that out and checked filament which was ok. I swopped it with the LH bulb and both worked also my indicators were fine. I think it must have been a bad connection so cleaned up all the contact points and put all bulbs back and hey presto alls fine. Thanks again for all the help and suggestions guys

Yes. This is intermittent. It happens randomly. Hence my query.

wd40 is good for cleaning the contacts where the bulb goes into the fitting use a cotton-bud, also good stuff to use in link below..
