Bad ground, corrosion in the socket pins, bad bulb, bad flasher...

Bad flasher ? What's that ? You mean like the relay?

Are they dim only when you are using the blinkers? When the parking lights are turned on are they still real dim? How are the rear ones? Are the blinkers bright there?

Blinkers are OK out back. I do notice blink kind of fast. The fronts don't look like they are doing anything but when you look real close they are blinking .you can see the filament going on n off.

Again, when you turn on the parking lights without hitting the blinkers, do the front light up correctly?

Try removing one bulb at a time and see it the other one goes back to normal. May be just a bad bulb affecting the other good one.

Gdawg ill try that in a few. What I did notice is that when the front lights are off the blinkers work. When they are on they don't. Weird...
