11chevz71 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I currently just installed four led bulbs for the turn signals/brake light set up in my truck. The turn signal start out fine but then start clicking really fast. I wondering what was wrong then firgured out that i might need a load resistor or a new led compatable flasher. My questions is which one do i need i rather do the flasher if possible. Also will it hurt it to leave it alone? If a flasher is possible were is it located i dont think this newer truck has one like they are showing. Should i just switch it back to the old bulbs and leave the other led in? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Won't harm it and the flasher is the best bet... It'll slow them down. soldering in resistors stinks... I've done it on my bikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the resistor i was looking at you use splices which is a crappy way to do things. Along with that you need one for each bulb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Nothing but solder should be used and I agree! It's a crappy way of doing it. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawson4450 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 superbrightleds.com has the flashers and the resistors I have had mine for a few years now with no problems. The resistors are built into my tails so im good their just the front turn signals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lawson4450 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 you can also check autoluminations.com and Vleds.com both of some nice stuff also just plain led stuff check out oznium.com lots of nice stuff. Not sure where the bulbs are made though to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lawson4450 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 in my truck there are two fuse panels and also another panel above the brake pedal which i think is where the flashers are but not sure off the top of my head. its a block that is above and slightly towards the door.
