The other current thread on LED headlights got me looking again.
Thoughts on functionality and fitment of these ones? https://www.amazon.ca/Approved-Headlights-W...s/dp/B07L5BNYKK My understanding is that it's the housing depth that can cause an issue with the compatibility. |

So the LED headlights seems to have messed up my turn signal relays. What's the fix?

The headlight/foglight and turnsignal systems are pretty much independent of each other. What do you see happening with the turnsignals? Thanks for the feedback! When I use the turn signal, the dashboard indicator light flashes only a couple of times, then stops. I didn't actually verify what's happening to the turn signal light itself. I just recalled comments about LED's messing up turn signals, and assumed the same thing was happening. I'll have a look at the actual signals today. I did tie into the warts to get power to the halos -- is that part of the turnsignal system? |

Can you hear the clicking. Do you have the single tach L/R indicator? |
