Hey all,
I just purchased "Redline" model number 3156 (I believe..don't have them with me right now) LED bulbs which were supposed to be direct replacement for the stock rear turn signal bulbs in my '97 Explorer. To make the story short, the bulbs worked fine when my four-ways are on, but when I put either turn signal on, the flash was extremely fast, EXACTLY as if the bulb would be broken or something (as if your stock bulb would burn out, then cause your turn signal to flash faster). Anyways, I can't figure out why this is happening. Again, the four ways work great (meaning, regular flash pattern and speed), but when either turn signal is put on, the flash gets too fast. I tried putting the stock bulbs back in, and the flash resumes to normal speed, so the problem definitely is limited to the LED... Oh yeah, I have the LED's in correctly too, as there is only one way to put them in (the other way they won't even function at all)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks a lot all.
