All the bezels and bulbs and wiring is brand new and all the lights work. The blinkers are just slow. Right is slower than left. Bill L. was right. I replaced the wrong flasher.

You need to check all of the light grounds and make certain that they are clean & tight. No corrosion or paint between the wire eyelet & the metal. You can use light sand paper to clean the corrosion/paint. Also be sure that you have the correct bulbs in the sockets. People have been known to "make" a single filament bulb fit in a dual filament socket - and vice-versa.
