Common problen that is easily fixed.


Universal Load Equalizers
The Custom LED Universal Load Equalizers come in two stages, and cures the common problems associated with retrofitting incandescent turn signal bulbs to LEDs. There are basically two things that can happen if one replaces the stock turn signals with LEDs (or smaller bulbs) on their vehicle or motorcycle.

Usually, when you remove incandescent bulbs from a blinker system and replace them with LEDs - the stock flasher relay begins to blink too fast. This is actually the designed response of the flasher relay as it is trying to indicate to the operator that a bulb is burned out, which is not the case

Alternatively, it is possible that your blinker system will stop working all together - either the blinkers will come on and stay on steady, or they will not come on at all, or the left and right indicators will illuminate at the same time! Rest assured, Custom LED has a solution for you...

There are two ways to fix the fast blink or no blink problem:

1) PREFERRED - Replace the flasher relay with one that does not have a "bulb-out" notification or a minimum load requirement such as the Custom LED Electronic LED Flasher Relay (must have a two wire replaceable flasher relay - see compatibility list).

2) OR - Add load to the blinker system VIA Custom LEDs Load Equalizers. The Custom LED Load Equalizers are the perfect sized resistors that cure this problem!
