I fitted some LED indicators the other day and all was well.
On my way to work tonight when the indicators were on, the flashing on the instument panel seemed a little dimmer than normal. Now, the indicator light on the instument panel is staying on, albeit quite dim. When i use the indicators the instrument panel is at normal brightness. If I switch the killswitch to off, the dim indicator light on the instrument panel goes off too. If I just turn the electrics off with the key, the indicator light stays on for a second or two. The LED indicators were fitted using the Suzuki cable adapters and I changed the relay for one for LED's. They worked as they should when I fitted them so can anybody shed some light on my problem. |

Good morning.
Re check the connections to the new indicators, & the new relay. A dodgy contact could give you the symptoms you describe. Un plug the indicators one at a time, & see if the panel light goes out. This may give you a clue as to which item is the offending one. Also try re fitting the original relay, again if the light goes out. there's the culprit. Cheers. |

Well, got up this morning after my night shift ..
![]() One other thing though, when the indicators are on the dash lights do seem a little bit dimmer when they are flashing. Could this be due to the aftermarket relay? I an going to fit the original relay later and see what effect that has, other than increasing the flash rate to silly speed. |

Problems don't sort themselves out, they just hide away for a while and come back at an even more inconvenient time. I would go have another look at the wiring again. Loose connection?
