Default Electronic Flasher Needed!!

Good Morning All:

I recently purchase dthe "plug and play" LED taillights for the 94 C4 below
http://www.corvettemods.com/C4-Corve...96_p_6020.html

The issue i am having is that when i go to put the turn signal on they stay solid and do not flash.... they DO flash when i put the hazards on.

Could anyone help me out and refer me to a correct part # for an electronic flasher? From what i gather that is the issue

Thanks!

An EL-12 flasher generally works for the flasher issue but with some LED installs there are other issues that can also be encountered. The correction of those issues involves the addition of some resistors at the tail lamps. Most any auto parts stores should be able to help you. NAPA would be a good start OR a truck parts supplier. They're very familiar with LED lamp flasher requirements. Just ask for electronic flasher for LED.

Search of the C4 forum should get you a couple hundred hits I'd think. LED Flasher might work well.

FYI- purchased the EL-12 Flasher at NAPA for 11$ and it did the trick. Also there is no hyperflash so if you are going to purchase these tail lights i did...no need to pay the extra $35

thanks for the help
