LED indicator advice
 

Hi all i have bought some LED indicators for my new tail tidy, i have also bought the resister thing to go with them but i have not got a clue where it wires into the indicators.

i obviously have 2 indicators and both have two wires coming off ready to wire to the existing but the resister thing is a little black box with only two wires coming out of !!!!!

I have not got a clue :smt089

sorry it wasnt northwind it was dirtydog ^^ same diagram :)

Only problem with the advice so far is that what he has sounds more like a Flasher Relay then a resistor - which is im my opinion a better solution to flash rate issues.

Post a pic of the unit so we can see what it is and advise accordingly

Re: LED indicator advice
 

a new variable flasher relay will do the same job.

Re: LED indicator advice
 

You can add the resistors at any point in the circuit, it doesn't have to be anywhere near the actual indicator. Althought you do have to make sure your using the correct wires!
