LED Hyperflash MESS!
Posted: Tue Feb 17, 2015 1:21 pm
Okay, Im needing some help in getting my 96' to work with LEDs.
Ill start by saying what all i have swapped to LEDs so far:
-All 4 rear tail light brake bulbs
-All 4 Reverese bulbs
-Tag light
-Fog lights
Now, with that being said, here is my problem:
-I first only had a Hyperflash issue.
-I then swapped the Rear LEDs that were in the brake light to a PILOT canbus LED that said on the box it wouldnt hyperflash
-after installing those, the hyperflash was still present, only now when the parking/headlights were NOT on, the front signal, front fog, rear brake, tag, and instrument panel all flashed when i put it for the left/right blinker on. and when i would press the brake pedal itself, with no lights on, the instrument panel lit up and it chimed like the lights were left on, but only when the brake pedal was pressed with no lights on.
-so after that i was like, wtf? SO, i bought an EP27 LED flasher, installed it.
after installing it, the lights blink normally when the headlights/parking lights are on, BUT still all those same lights blink when the parking/headlights are off. AND the LED flasher makes the turn signal click with the signal arm in the nuetral postion.
SO! HELP! lol what am i doing wrong and how do i fix it?
In addition to the LED flasher i bought, i also bought two LED load resistors, the type you tap into the brake lights themselves. I havent installed them, partly because i dont know which wires to connect them to, annnd i didnt know if i should run the flasher, plus those resistor loads.
any input is helpful and appreciated!
