Most flashers are load-dependent. That means that the more current,
the faster the flash. It could be that there is a short in or near
the rear light so the current is leaking to ground somewhere rather
than going through the bulb.
In any case it is definitely a wiring problem because the front light
is working.
I'd start in the trunk and follow the wiring from the light back up.

BTW it would be helpful to know what model and year of car you have
rather than just "ALL ALL".
Most of us have experience on specific models and years of cars and they
ARE different.
