Default Hpyer flash

I was having problems with the turn indicators on my "01 vert. I found people using a Hyperflash here and tried one. At first, it worked great. But as time has passed, I don't see any better signal flashing than I did before. I called the company that sold it to me but they just seemed to not believe what I was telling them. "We never heard of that happening before." Do these things wear out ? Is one supplier of Hyperflash better than another ?

Can't you swap a new flasher in?

The flasher could have gone out. I don't see the wiring going bad.

Pull it and check the connections etc. If you need a flasher Cf13's are what we use.

the hyperflash harnesses should use the same components, but some modules may be prone to failure more than others.

You might consider one of mine:

Are you sure you don't have a bad bulb somewhere?

Thanks as always for great and prompt replys.

Bulbs are all good.

Yes, I could replace the HyperFlash, but I hate to make a habit of this.

Do these products not last any longer than a couple of years ? I was thinking I could add a HyperFlash and be done with it. Is that not the case ? I see here there are more than one place to buy a HyperFlash. Is one more reliable than another ?

Merry Thanksgiving evryone

It is possible (however unlikely) that the hyper flash flasher has failed. It's true that this is rare, however not impossible. To my knowledge, there is no significantly quality difference in the flashers used in these harnesses. Have you checked to make sure the harness wasn't damaged or pins in the harnesses loosened?
