Hey guys, I have an 08 cross bones that I have put the led bulbs in the rear and I just installed the heartland turn signal mirrors. I know I need a load equalizer, but which one do you guys recommend???

A memeber suggested this to me. Might help. Just seems like you would need two, which gets pricey. http://www.biketronics.com/products/...Equalizer.html

Did you try disconnecting the battery, hooking it back up, and using your signals? I did this when I installed the rear alloy art signals, the voltage corrected by itself.

I just bought the Illuminator III from badlands and its a plug and play load balancer....

Plus it will automatically convert your dual element signals into 3 way (run, turn, brake). Good luck.

let the signal blink for a couple of minutes, to see if the load adjusts.
