It's actually a bit better. Starting to understand. Thanks, Bill. But what would cause "hyperflashing" with LED's if they have more resistance than incandescent bulbs. There's a lot of talk about adding resistors to an LED bulb circuit. ohwell

I've never seen 'hyperflashing'.

Adding a parallel resistor to led lights should allow a standard flasher to work properly.

Amber looks to be a little dimmer I believe they will do the job. Thanks for the pics
