Default Indicator problem

I have aftermarket small indicators fitted to my 2002 curvy s. They were fitted before I bought it. They flash really quick and not like normal indicators. Anyone know how I make them flash normally?

Either they're LEDs, or the bulbs are less than 21W.

You need to consume more power in the circuit to slow them down. This can be done by either adding a resistor, or changing the bulbs to the right ones for the SV.

It's been covered many many times for LED indicators, so start with a search there & post if you get stuck.

Do both left or both right flash fast?
If only one, a bulb has blown or ( more likely ) bad connection.
Tap it & see if it works then.
