Uncle larry you know if you don't use synthetic you'll burn it out quicker. And jungle check your grounds that might be it or there's still fu('ed up wires somewhere

Joe, couple things. When I switched my signals to aftermarket, with one plugged in and one not they would not blink they would do what your describing so I know you're looking at the rear but make sure your fronts are kicking on too. If I disconnect or if my front bulb goes out I lose rear blinking. Two, some of these aftermarket a can be wired for running or blinking or both. Mine do this but my harness in the rear is set for only blinking. Front does both. If I miswire one of the back it will also do what your saying meaning if one rear wire was crossed it will do this. And lastly they sometimes use the stalk as a ground make sure your ground is contacting good. I had the same issue and thought I received faulty signals, just had to finish wiring everything up right for it to work.

UPDATE::: Well, seems that when I installed the LED kit, I couldn't understand, which way they were saying to plug in the resistor box first, either from the fender side or the main harness side...So after tearing everything back apart, rear tire off, all that mess looking at the wires..I simple had the resistor and the other control box "plugged" in backwards. Sometimes, you can be to smart for your own good!
