Ok, so I laid my 600rr down to avoid a car that ran a red light in short.

Shes 90% back just waiting on paint.

So, I am trying to install new Hotbodies flush mount LED's in the front, and LP angle LEDs in the rear. Now, I am running into a problem. My LED's won't Blink. I'm hooked up in this order.

Front Right / Rear Right:

Front- Black to Green / Red to Solid Blue *stripe blue is running light*

Rear Black to Green / Yellow to Solid Blue.

-----------------------

Front Left / Rear Left:

Front- Black to Green / Yellow to Solid Orange (stripe orange is running light*

Rear- Black to Green / Yellow to Solid Orange.

----------------------

So, do I need something for the flasher? or something for LEDs from the stock bulbs? Thanks.

 

check to maske sure u did not blow the turn signal fuse b/c you creossed the wires. next unhook ONLY the right side blinker. leave the left side attached turn on battery power and check to see if its blinking. turn off battery and try it again just to make sure you havent blown the fuse again. if you blow fuse again swich the wires. do the same for the right side.

 

Your problem is probably that you need to install resistors. LEDs require much less draw than the stock signals, and wont blink without resistors. Actually, they're probably blinking so fast that you cant even tell they are.

If your lights come on, but don't appear to blink, then you need to either install resistors or replace your flasher relay. I'd go for the latter.

If your lights don't come on at all, you most likely blew a fuse do to incorrect wiring, or any exposed leads that are touching.

 

I havn't blown a fuze. But, wher would I buy these resistors? Thanks.

 

Ok, I went to HONDA today. They said what they do in there shop is splice the running light wire and the ground to a 12v 1.5a bulb and hide it. Now, to me this is ****, but the 'right' way is to use a no load flasher. These are availiabe. Also, resistor kit.

So, I guess you A. Have to trick the system to thinking its still got a bulb in it. B. LEDs dont have enough load, so you have to get a load some where.

SO, thanks for all the help guys! Hope this helps others.

 

my integrator came with 2 resistors that worked great.....i'm sure a relay will work, but might be more expensive?

Flasher Relay

See if your bike in on the list. It's alot easier to replace the relay than splice in resistors.

Use Load EQ if it is not.

 

Yeah, I talked to custom led today. I've orderd the Stage II Equilizer kit.

Later...
