LED Blinker: Annoying OR
Hi I recently bought some new blinkers for my ranger and I'm not sure exactly what they are but they are LED and they shine a lightish blue and blink amber when the turn signal is on and I ran into an annoying problem
I installed the item by plug and play and everytime I turn on my blinker it doesn't pause and blink it's more of a blink constantly, making my turn signals very annoying.
I heard it's a problem with most LED's because they make a short or something.
If you do not get my description I'm sorry but there is no real other way I can explain it.
Thanks, Joey

Head to Autozone or wherever, and get an EP-27 electronic flasher.

Those links should help you find it on your truck...but your year may be slightly different - but I believe it's in a similar location.

Yup, EP-27 electronic flasher, about $12 - $16 online or in most parts stores should clear up the led issues.
Led's have less electrical resistance than regular bulbs so the trucks think the bulb is burned out (like a dead bulb) so the truck blinks faster to indicate the dead bulb. The ep-27 flasher has built in circuitry to account for the led's & 99% of the time it will fix all your led troubles.
