Default Installed LEDs/blinking problem?
I installed 1157 LEDs as replacements for my front turn signals on my 2006 HD Heritage. They now blink regular for the first 3-4 blinks, then speed up rapidly. Is this ok or do I need something else to fix it?


Thanks.

You need a load equalizer.

try www.chromeglow.com, they should have one that plugs into the wiring harness. I had to splice mine in, but they did not have a connector for the Rocker.
