View Full Version : Turn signal flicking too fast!

It's a problem with the difference in the bulb wattage. I bought some D-Max turn signals with LED's and becuase they're different than stock, they flick on and off double time. My question is how do I go about fixing this issue? and if you could guide me in the right direction that would be just swell. :D Thanks

use a regular bulb instead of an LED

you need a load resistor for the LEDs.

Check out www.superbrightleds.com, they should have the info you need.

you can add a bulb in parallel to the circuit... and then hide it somewhere

Great! now, should I be looking at the 6 OHM/ 50watt resistor? or the 25 OHM/25 watt resistor? For an S13 turn signal

6 OHM/ 50watt resistor
