Irregular blinker pattern

In the past couple of days both my right and left blinkers have started flashing and making the audible interior tone in irregular patterns rather than the consistent tick tock, tick tock, tick tock of a new one, now it's like tick tock, ticka ticka tick tock, tick tock tock tick, etc. (Man I love explaining noises! )

Anyway, do I have a bulb that is about to go, bad flasher, electrical issue or am I low on blinker fluid?

That's why I asked if I have one that is "about" to go instead of "do I have one burned out"? None of the bulbs are out yet. Just because I can't figure out where to fill up my blinker fluid doesn't mean I don't know how to check for burned out bulbs.

I've had that exact problem happen to me a few times; and I thought I was losing my mind lol. The bulbs are definately not burnt out and it usually happens when the left/right/caution signals are on for longer than 20-30 seconds.

This happened to me to and I replace all the bulbs and it quit and started operating normally. So obviously one of the bulbs were going out. This may not be whats wrong in your case, but i would try replacing bulbs first.

My battery died, so I was hoping that the irregular pattern was just a symptom of that. No dice, it still happens. Anyone figure this out? I just paid $125 to get my blinker fluid topped off as well, still didn't fix it. I'm going crazy now.
