i had a look today and found a 8 pin plug with only 5 in use, was covered in shit so i sprayed co-contact cleaner on it and reconnected, the connections looked fine though, guess i'll have to keep looking
it would happen every couple months but now it's daily,
i installed hids but i have checked the connections and it used to happen prior to installing them
have checked an earth next to the lights and that was loose, tightened it up and they still blow
hey guys, anyone had this problem?
going to check the contacts in the switch today.
but anywhere else i should look? dodgy earth points are anywhere that shorts out?
i've already ordered a full set of led globes and an electronic flasher unit, but thanks for the suggestion, i didn't know you could get the t10 in 18 watt
when i put the hazards on the flash normally, all the lights are working and none of them are LEDs
however i had a series 1.5 had big 21w globes and the series 2 bar has little 5w T10 wedges.
so that would be what's tricking it into blinking quick.
thanks, now i kinda know where to look

hey mate, i started a topic that should help you out.
you need an electronic flasher unit, i ordered one off ebay

not sure if the pin layout is correct though

Link to ebay store i used, they seem legit.
sorry mate, from my understanding it would be the same either way? so a resistor would fix it but i'd prefer to just replace the flasher unit with an electric one
seems better than mucking around with wires and resistors
it's a 3 pin, not sure if the positive is on the left or right though
i purchased all new LED lights and a led flasher, it sounds like it's just the electronic type.
i don't think it would be in the ecu,
i spoke to a guy at an auto-one and he tried to sell me the original resistor, but obviously that wouldn't fix it.
That does mean it is just a 3 pin resistor that i need to find.
New question! If i convert all my indicators to LEDs can i just buy a resistor made for them?
