HELP with LED's

I have replaced my stock halogen blinkers with LED's. I hooked it up and got the LED blinkers to come on, but they won't blink. What is going on?

which ones did you use? If you used the HD lights check your wiring. You have the connectors pinned wrong.

You might need a load equalizer.

Ditto on the load equalizer. I still couldn't get it to work on my Heritage and had to have the dealership install it with the equalizer. They have an electrician on staff or call. According to the dealership, if I'd bought the Harley brand tail light, it would be plug and play with an equalizer. I do know you need to have the correct adapter to plug the tail light harness into the fender wiring socket. The tail lights sold by the dealership have the correct wired pin.
