The front bulbs were enough of a load to trigger my "normal" flasher. I did use a no-load on my four way flashers though. Remember though, the tail lights have absolutely nothing to do with the trailer relay, or the flasher, and that's what Dan was having problems with. It has to be a wiring/connection/ground issue for him. It's not going to be the need for a resistor either, which only acts to limit current flow. He's got the same 12.6v battery under the hood that everyone else does, and if his tail lights doesn't work with just the key turned on (and the engine not running), then limiting the current in the circuit with resistors is not going to make a difference. I just know if I had his car under my nose for five minutes I could tell what the problem was -- it's got to be something really, really simple that he's just looking past instead of seeing. It could be that the bolt that is at the back base of the trunk, and that acts as a common ground for the back light circuits, has its threads covered with goo or paint, and it's just barely grounding. But I think ol' Dan has thrown in the towel on getting LEDs to work on his car.
