Is the one on the side of the front wing working?

Normally flashing like mad is because the resistance of the circuit has changed and it relies on this resistance of a bulb for the timing. I am not sure, but believe the side repeater is a bulb and therefore will have a resistance that the circuit needs.

It is indeed a bulb. Somehow the little plastic cover thing broke off mine and it had a bulb sticking out. So that would be a good place to start.
