If the bulb is lighting up but not blinking, your new bulb probably takes less current than the stock 1156/1157 bulbs. The new ones aren't LED's, are they? You can either buy amber 1156 and/or 1157 bulbs and put them in place of your new ones or buy a new blinker module that doesn't depend on the current draw to cycle. superbrightleds.com has one for a few bucks, but I think most of the replacement ones at the auto parts stores are all solid state these days too, so they would probably work as well.
