Default Load equalizer question
Am running smoked lenses on my 06 Road King. Want to install Harleys module to convert turn signals into running/brake lights.. My question is this...if I want to install red LED bulbs in the rear turn signals for better visibility, will I need a load equalizer??

Any input appreciated!

Since LED modules use about one thenth the power of regular bulbs you should not have a problem. LED modules are expensive compared to bulbs. See my post on problems I had when I installed the Brake light/ turn light conversion module. Lots of problems for me and my Ultra. Still not resolved. George
