Switchback LED's back in, no hyper-flash
Aloha all,
Just finished re-installing my switchback LED’s using “SUPRFUN’s” LED flasher mod. The only thing I did different was using no-solder splices to connect the respective wires. I finally found a 3 plug/wire connector (from NAPA) to use with the new flasher and that’s what got me to pull the trigger on this mod. It was easy & works quite well with no hyper-flash. The only thing I’ve notice is the DLR lights seem a bit dim compared to standard corner bulbs & there’s a slight flicker at times that doesn’t seem related to fans coming on, etc. Again this is only noticeable with the DLR’s & not in any other mode. Any ideas? Everything else works as fragged. I’ll probably end up changing the Xenon bulbs to 4300 or 5000 (?), I don’t know, whatever it takes to better match the LED’s bluish hue… Gotta find Jdmvette’s thread again!

They should not flicker, check to make sure they are seated securely in the sockets, I know I had a hard time getting one side in. And the LEDs are not as bright as the old bulb.
Also, I could not find a harness so I just used blade connectors to connect the wired to the flasher.
