Fast flashing turn signal

[EEE]

Yesterday I replaced the headlights and front turn signals with LED bulbs on my Jeep Wrangler JK 2011


The headlights: Amazon.com: HWSTAR New 1000% Bright Anti-glare 7 Inch Led Headlights Round Compatible with Jeep Wrangler JK JKU TJ LJ Chevy Ford GMC etc w/Starry DRL Start-up Gradient Halo Turn Signal H6024 DOT Hi/Lo Sealed Beam : Automotive

The turn signals: Amazon.com: Aexploer for JK Front Turn Signal LED Lights Running Lamps Compatible with Wrangler JK JKU 2007-2018,White Vertical LED Bar as Daytime Running Lights,Amber Yellow LED as Turn Signal Lights(Clear Lens) : Automotive



I connected the turn signal also to the headlights so they flash as well.

Everything works perfectly except that the turn signal flashes very quickly. The turn signals have a resistor, as shown in the photo.

How can I fix this? Is the resistor insufficient, or have I connected something incorrectly?

The previously light bulbs that i replaced are 12V P27/7W

You need to get and install a hyperflash resistor.

You have the resistor wired wrong. You have black going to red and red going to black. Reverse those wires and you should be good to go.

Thanks for your answer, I saw that to tonight after watching the photo close again

But this is the only way the sockets will fit, or did i put the left on the right side and vica versa? I would think they are the same for both sides…

I will check tomorrow and let you know!

I doubt they are left and right sided. It's very possible the manufacturer messed this up. It happens more and more. You might be able to get a thin paperclip and pop the pins out of the connectors to swap the wires if you're not comfortable splicing the wires correctly.

I will cut the wires and connect them with new correctly connections (after testing it)

I also think it’s a factory mistake because both sides are in te wrong order i checked this night.

Will lett you know tomorow i also have backup resistors

Okay, I swapped the wires on both sides, but this had no effect.

Then I used my backup resistors instead of the ones in the picture. This seemed to work for a short while, but after turning the turn signals on and off 6 or 7 times, the error still occurred (but this time only on one side of the car, not both sides, and then randomly).

After walking around the Jeep, I noticed that the rear turn signals were now only flashing at 1% (almost invisible). This must have happened somewhere along the way today, perhaps a blown fuse? When I turn on the hazard lights, they do flash at full power.

The LED front lights are now flashing properly, but with the error message, and the rear turn signals are running at 1%.

In short: I'm taking the Jeep to the garage here next week and leaving it to the experts
