Default After market Indicator problem

I have a UK CBR600RR 07 and i've purchased LED indicators. The relay i have removed has 4 pins on the connector, the relay i got supplied has 3 pins on the connector.

I have managed to get it wired up so that the indicators flash normal, unfortunately when the ignition is switched off the indicators are still able to flash with no key in the ignition. I have tried moving the 3 wires of the new relay about in the 4 connection ports of the wiring loom of the bike but all i seem to do is blow the 10amp fuse with all other combinations that i've tried. I've now ran out of fuses and have ordered 20 off ebay

My relay is a Rizoma and the 3 connections are L - load pole, P - power pole and G - ground pole.

Can anyone give me any clues on the wiring for LED indicators so that I dont blow all 20 new fuses?

Thanks for you any help

Plug the stock relay back in (I though they were hard-wired in though). Buy 4 LED resistors online or at a parts store, wire them in, problem solved.

the resistors i recommend are 10 ohm, 10 watt. clear alternatives sends 5 ohm, 20 watt resistors, but they take up a ton of space and get a lot hotter, and don't seem to make a difference as far as the flashing is concerned. also, i only have 2 resistors, and it seems to work just fine. however, mine is an 03.

I have 2 on my bike as well (two allows for a fast blink) 4 of them will allow for the normal stock blink rate. (on an 06 model)
