I've got LED turn signal problems
I did a Koji mod on my 2003 headlights, painted the inside trim black, and got replaced the the ugly yellow bulb cover with a straight tube. I replaced the lamp with 19 bulb LEDs but now I have a problem. Because the LEDs draw less power, they blink fast as if the bulbs are out, which they are not.
Anyone else have this problem? Any idea how to fix this?

i have catz 9 led bulbs and no blinker problems, they blink the same speed as before. there prolly isnt the right resistance across the bulb. if you know any electronics guru's they might be able to fix that for you by add or changing an resistor.

Try getting a electronic flasher or a no load sensing flasher.
should fix it. Shane |

You need a reisistor or a load equalizer. Same thing, different name. Get them here:

I really dont like the idea of just sticking a large resistor to fix this problem.
get the non load sensing flasher. Shane |
