Well this was quite interesting. I got two of those SMD LED orange lights for my indicators.
Put them in and they didn't work. So a quick search and I found out that I had to reverse the polarity. Did that and they both worked perfectly with the hazards.
Then I checked them flicking the indicators left and right.
And they went mental haha flashing very quickly like they do when I bulb has gone. After thinking and being very confused I realised that the low voltage that is required for the LED's has caused the quick flashing.
So anyway to make it slow down? Like adding a resistor to each LED or replacing all indicators with LED's?
