Default Custom Dynamcis LED Install

Hello all. I have been looking through the forums regarding any known issues with LED installs and think I might have a unique situation. Recently installed Custom Dynamics Dynamic Ringz Front and LED Cluster in the rear on my 2006 StreetGlide. After a number of pictures and planning, I actually determined I have 1157 front and 1157 rear (which is apparently unusual for my model year, usually 1157 front/1156 rear config). I am the second owner and don't have the history on the bike. The bike also has the HD run/brake module installed as well as the HD OEM LED brakelight.

The light install was easy and I also bought the CD stabilizer for my PIN configuration. Ran the setup process and ultimately got the rapid-flash result. It also triggers my alarm indicator (key light on dash). Tried install both with HD run/brake module and without just to rule our RB Module.

I have been working with Custom Dynamics tech support over the last two days to solve the issue. Checked fuses across the spectrum - they were good. CD is being very responsive, I'm just not confident we are going to solve the issue.

Anyone else with a model year prior to 2010 install CD LEDs and did you have any issues with rapid flash and alarm interference? I have read maybe using the Biketronics module.

Any thoughts?

Have them on my 2010 Lo. Had an issue with the rapid flash and key light activation that was caused by the power lead from the resistor pulling loose of the battery. Put the lead back on and no more problems. Hope that may help.

Thanks! The lead is securely fastened (loophole connection to battery terminal both sides). I'll keep troubleshooting.

I have the same set up on my 09 minus the HD run / brake module.

Also what are you running for the LED set up on the rear? Your post states LED clusters, are you referring to Dynamic Clusters?

Have you pulled any codes that the Red Key will surely throw.

I had the biketronics Load Equalizer and had similar issues with the RED KEY, I switched to CD Load Equalizer and that solved the problem.

I have Custom Dynamics LEDs front (dynamic ringz) and rear (standard red cluster). I have not pulled any codes. I assume I would need to go to dealer to have them hook it up to determine? I was just going off the rapid blinking and the red key light when I use the turn signals. Doesn't happen under normal braking (with or without run/brake module installed). Sorry for any stupid questions. New to the electronics stuff ;-)

It should. I bought the bike and the rears were 1157. Tried the 1156s. They will not fit in the bulb socket due to the slightly offset contact points on the bulb base.
