Left Tail Light And Turn Signal Quit Working.

I have a 2008 Jeep Patriot Limited. Last night the dash lights flashed several time, and a message said left rear turn signal lamp out. I checked the lamp, looks fine, I replaced the lamp with a new one, no change, I switched the one from the right side to the left, no change. All tail Lights including tag lights are off. No lights stay on. Right turn signal will work and Right brake light will come on when the brake is pressed. The left lamp will flash for a few flashes, then speed up and stop working after 5 seconds or so. Probably matching what the dash lights are doing. Roy Cole
