Ok, I just hooked them up the other day and they are acting wierd. You know whenever you have a blown buld in a turn signal its makes it blink faster? Thats what it seems like is going on now, but they are not blown. I am wondering if it is because my new signal bulbs are really small and they do not draw much wattage. Could this be it? What if I put a small resistor behind that bulb, would that slow down the blinking?

the speed is based on resistance so add a resistor to slow it down

or you can use a zero load flasher (hazard flasher) to replace the flash module

Can't, i have an aftermarket bumper and there isn't a spot for lights. I guess I'll just use a resistor.

Also, that doesn't make sense. The pop-up front end only has one bulb in the front for turn signals. Why would it act different with just the corner lights hooked up?
