    My 79 308GTB is flashing very fast on right side turn signal. Thought it might be the flasher. Can't find them.

    Anybody know?

    Agreed...likely just a bulb, but I think the flasher is under the passenger footrest.

    You have a light burned out. Turn on the left turn signal and walk around the car making a mental note of all lights which flash, front and rear. Now do the same with the right indicator on and note which light is missing.

    If the missing light is in a front lens in the bumper, a Philips screwdriver will remove the lens to gain access. If it's in the rear, pull the trunk carpet away from the light and pull out the 3 light holder for access. picture below, it just pulls out enough to get to the bulbs. Any auto store will have replacement bulbs, take the old one in.

    There always is a chance that the bulb is making bad contact and just needs those contacts cleaned.

    FYI, the flasher is under the panel above the passenger's knees. There is a relay and a fuse panel inside. The flasher is the upper left cube plugged into the relay panel. But since the left side works normally, it's ok.
