Not had the time lately. But will try unplugging the front signals to see if it makes any difference. I had spliced the front side and mirror signals together. I had swapped the original relay already, if I can get to it I'll see if there is a part number on it. Was quite a while ago I got it so don't think it's in my eBay history.

 

Ah, found it:
eBay Item number 280466041545

 

Part number seems to be: 714151

 

Please correct me if I'm wrong, it's been a few years since I looked into this. The fast flash indication applies to normal incandescent bulb systems and not LED replacements. With incandescent, one goes out and the decrease in resistance makes the conventional flash relay cycle faster. With replacement LEDs they produce a fast flash because they decrease resistance in the circuit and causes the conventional flasher to fast cycle. Replacement LED specific relays depend on resistors or time interval switching. If a LED light goes out even with a LED relay in place, there is no change in flash time because of the small change in resistance. If there is newer technology on the market, I would like to know.

 

Definitely not arguing with that one, it's the reason why I left the whole fast flashing/relay for the end while taking care of other more important things.

Now if you're referring to the fast flashing as a priority keeping a little safer and more visible, then I think most manufacturers if not all would be adjusting their flashers accordingly. As you mentioned in your latest response, it has to do with the load not being as great on LED vs incandescent bulbs hence triggering a faster flash.

At this point, I think it boils down to opinions. You think the fast flash is more noticeable hence being safer. I think it looks cheap because its an incomplete modification. Whatever the reason for either party, we do what floats our boats and be happy with out decisions

Thank you, sir!

Well said!

 

I see your point there. Not sure if that good a relay exists yet. Especially with most aftermarket setups being cheap imports. But I suppose with manufacturers moving towards led as stock, you'd kinda expect they would build the same fast flash feature in or some other warning. Maybe a dashboard warning. In which case I suppose fast flash okay. Each to their own ;P
