LED tail light wiring

[Jay77]

In the process of re wiring my rear lights on my ute

Can something be done to stop the blinkers flashing so fast
Because of the leds?

Any help appreciated,cheers

I'm guessing the new ones are LED? You might need some load resistors

Or just swap your flasher relay for one of these

Seems expensive when you can buy load resistors for about $1.60 from some electronics suppliers.

You are spot on Matty just the first one I found on flea bay had the search on Aus only I think I got mine from China for around 5 bucks just and easy plug and play option

Are the load resistors hard to install?

[Jay77]

Flasher can seems a lot easier

[threedogs]

you'll need 50 OHm load resistors cheap as chips but as you noted the relay is the easy option

Change the Flasher Relay... last ones I bought were under $5
Takes 10 seconds including opening the drivers door :-)
I certainly can't be rrsed splicing in load resistors... unless you need 1 off for the brake LED to fool the Cruise Control

Also means you don't get any issues with trailers etc

Make sure you get the correct pin out B-L-E and not E-L-B

50 Ohm ???

You sure about that... I think you may mean 50 Watt
