Default 01 f4i proton flushmount issue

I still get psycho blinker, regardless of which setting (wires) I hook up. Pretty upset because the focus for purchasing these was so I don't have psycho blinker. Rep tells me that I should go to the hardware store and purchase an electronic signal relay to replace the mechanical one. He tells me I should hear it click somewhere on the bike, I don't hear anything clicking and I am unsure of where it is and if it is in fact mechanical to begin with.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks for the link, but it doesn't help me. These lights are not supposed to cause this. Thats why they are a hundred bucks. Im wondering if there is any truth about the relay. If not I'm gonna send these back and just get cheap ones

LED lights blink faster because they use less current and have less resistance. Expensive LEDs are supposed to have circuitry that fix's this problem.

You say a rep is telling you you'll need a relay? thats crap!
tell them you're returning them for Watsen's (super expensive)

Watsens correct this issue.....
