Rep Power: 0 Problem with blinker after LED install
My car blinker stop when the LED watts are too low..
- you know how the blinker work when you signal left/right
- Well if I put LED on the blinker the on board computer or sensor would think that the car turn lights is out.. therefore stop working completely...
i have almost all LED on my car except Low Beam + High Beam.. (HID)
- so right now i have back brake signal LED and the car think that its out too so the blinker is actually blinking really rapid..
is there a LED product made so that it has the right resistance for the car so it wont do weird stuff..?

You can pick one up at a car parts store (pepboys, autozone, etc).
I grabbed one that was a tridon ep34 equivalent, but it was too big to fit in the OEM spot.. I'm gonna try another store to find a no **** tridon ep34 one tomorrow
The one I got was a blazer FL34
