Quick LED Turn Signal Question

26 Jul 2011 19:20

ok, I've installed Front and rear LED turn signals (the Rears are brake/tail/turn) on my 82 Kz550 LTD.... I installed the rear first and got everything wired up, planning not to run any front signals, then decided I should probably run them when the wouldn't flash, just stay lit solid, even after I installed an Electronic Flasher for LEDs....
I ordered some front LED signals off eBay and wired and installed them last night... Turned on the blinker and the rear came on solid, the front didn't come on at all, and the cluster indicator came on solid... ok, so I plugged in a factory turn signal and everything worked, and blinked, just fine.... so I take it I still need to wire in a resistor even WITH an electronic Flasher Relay already in place or have I missed something?

Thanks for any help.... tryin to get this buttoned up before I take it for its first ride.

You're sure you have a NO-LOAD electronic flasher?

If it has tits or tires, it'll give you problems!

Yep, right on. Otakar suggested the CF12 flasher which is what I got, I have absolutely no gripes about that flasher whatsoever.
