I built a new rear bumper with LEDs, and yes it does flash too fast, I hoped I,d get away with because of the old lights on the front but no. Supercheap want $34. for a 3 pin, but only $18. for a two pin can I adept a 2 pin, ,cause I paid $28 for a ordinary flasher unit 1 monthago tar |

keep the flasher. add a resistor inline with your LED's. dunno what value you need, but since they're a few cents each, buy a pair of each value you can get at dick smiths, and wire them in until you reach a flash your happy with. |

I would suggest that given the power these inline resistors are gonna need to handle some $0.05 1/4W resistors aren't going to be up to the job... Also, the resistor would need to be in parallel with the LEDs, not inline... |

A cheap 2 pin thermal flasher unit worked fine in mine when i had LED rear lights. Had to go a proper LED flasher now i run LED's all round, Narva 68249 2 pin, $14.00 from electrical wholesaler. |

I bough a 2pin flasher unit{non-load bearing], but didn't work..-another $30.....Got NARVA LOAD RESISTOR 2 OFF. Yeah works perfectly. Warning: Load resistor must be mounted to metal surface. Operating temperatures can reach 170C damaging plastics,carpets and painted mental surfaces. P/No.90034BL. Only 2 auto-electrical wholesales in Cairns, and they reckon there is no straight swap for Suzuki flashers.....you need to rig up little leads. $30. for the pair from ashdown- Lsomethink......... bye |

i tried 3 different cans/flashers, still didnt work.. Always flashed fast.. With all wiring correctly re-routed. Will have to try more with my new zook. |
