Advice needed on LED bulbs`

Hi,

I have recently bought some LED indicator bulbs for the front and rear of my 2013 Fiesta.

When installed they work great, but when you indicate they flash really fast.

Anyone else had this issue and how to fix it please?

 

Many thanks,

Sean

You need a load resister running in parallel with each bulb

It's okay, sorted it now.

Don't mean to have a go Sean, but it's a pet peeve of mine when people post for help, then solve the issue and post back to report it, but then don't think to post how or what they did. Again, not having a go at you personally Sean.

If you ever think of upgrading your indicators, autobeam have some premium indicators which are really bright and don't require resistors (so they flash at the normal speed). Have them on my mk6.5 fiesta and they stand out in terms of brightness.

I searched on Google for what to do and found the load resistor fix, I have now purchased some, but have yet to fit them.

I only posted that I had sorted it, but that was in response to my own question

Hi Sean.

 

Thanks for posting your solution.

 

Sometimes even a simple solution is worth posting for the next person who asks the same question! :biggrin:

Just had a look, does one box contain two bulbs or just one?

They come in pairs. I think all bulbs from autobeam come in 2

From my experience almost everything is pairs

Just fitted a set to a fiesta and they don't flash quickly and are very bright
