fast blinking turn signals

[epix]

ever since I put in some LED taillight bulbs my turn signal flashes very quick (like when a regular bulb is out)

Does anyone know what relay I need to use LED bulb arrays and not have the annoying ricer turn signal flashes.

use a digital / heavy duty flasher unit with LEDs

Re: fast blinking turn signals

You need an LED Load Equalizer. I have LED's all the way around on my Denali and SY. You need one for each side because LED bulbs do not carry a high enough load so the vehicle thinks there is a bulb out, hence, the rapid flash. Follow the link and move down. On the right you will see the 3 ohm Load Equalizer. You will need 2, (right and left sides). http://autolumination.com/equalizers.htm

Before I did all that I'd try a HD flasher. Some problem only in reverse happens when you pull a trailer. HD flasher fixes that as well.

Ther is an easier way... I'll have to take check again but I think you just add a resistor the ground of each bulb. I did it on the GT in the parking lot at NATS '05

I'll admit I haven't fooled with LED bulbs yet but what's easier than changing a flasher?

Re: fast blinking turn signals

ok...may be easier, I dunno.
Maybe I'll try it as well when I do the SY?

Check your blinker fluid first, that may be all you need.

:tup: You may have the wrong weight binker oil in there. Try a heavier weight oil, like SAE50WT-BF.
