Not really... You're not actually trying to affect the indicators, it's the relay you're trying to trick- the LED indicators resistance is lower than a conventional lamp, and so the relay thinks there's a short. You're not aiming for a precise resistance, you just need to get it into the rather wide range where the relay is fooled.
