Does any1 here use LED for blinkers and taillights? They blink too fast on mine. I was told to get some resistor. What the hell are these boogers and how do I install them? Will my LEDs eventually burn out if I dont fix the problem? BTW, I use LED front and intergrator kit for the rear.


Thanks, Bence

Sounds to me like a clear case of using improper Blinker fluid... I keep telling folks and they keep not listening... SYNTHETIC DOT V, 20 Wt Fluid is the only way to go... BUT NOOoOooOoO!!! Everyone knows better than ole' Rev...

In answer to your question NO this wont hurt your LED's, when you swapped out the incandescents for LEDs you reduced the load on the Blinker relay. (Or something like that) thus the gay ass Fast Flasher... The fix is indeed a resistor, but I cannot remember for the life of me what Ohms your looking for. Pretty simple fix though...

Besides, the LEDs use less power, so that mod has to be good for a HP or 2!
