LED in blinker issue....Not Relay Related.

2004 FX4

I installed LED lights in the front blinker location.

I did have the "blinker too fast" issue, but bought a relay and solved that issue.

I still have the following issues:

1. The right turn indicator in the instrument cluster stays illuminated at all times.
2. The blinker under the passenger side mirror stays illuminated at all times.
3. The passenger blinker does illuminate, but does not blink. The rear blinker and under mirror blinkers do work on the passenger side when turned on.

Thanks for any help.

run to your advance or whatever is in your area and ask for a Tridon EP-27 flasher (it will say led compatible on it, or something along those lines) plug it in and see what happens. if it works contact superbrightleds about the issue and if it doesnt work, there is something else wrong and you should try your stock bulbs to see what happens.

I'm not surprised. I bought one from them and it failed 3 months later.
