LED flasher question
This question is for all who have replaced their bulbs with LEDs. I know I need a new flasher for the turn signals, front and rear, to work. My question is which do I need and how many? I see 2 pin...3 pin etc. Can anyone elaborate on which pin kind i need and how many for front and rear turns? Thanks!

Re: LED flasher question
You need whatever the stock flasher uses, 2 pin I believe.I tried one when I switched to LEDs."Keep it Clean" i think is the name.Didnt help though.
Ended up wiring up a relay.One per lamp, so four, front only.I posted a thread way back.

The 2 flashers aren't "front and rear".
One is for the hazards, and one is for the turn signals.
If memory serves, they come as 2-pin in our cars; input, and output, so to speak. Seems like a lot of the ones for LEDs add a 3rd pin (gnd).

I ordered this one for my Firebird: https://www.superbrightleds.com/more...asher/779/833/ This one would be a simple drop in.
(however, they sent me the 3 pin version by accident. Works just as fine but I had to solder a little harness. 3rd pin is not needed on our cars.)

Re: LED flasher question
Weird, last week I bought the 2 pin flasher linked in the post, but I still get all blinkers not flashing. Maybe flasher designs have changed over the past several years since this thread. So I guess I need something else.

Re: LED flasher question
We have been selling the United Pacific led flashers for several years and they have worked well. They still make a clicking noise unlike a lot of other led flashers. These also have a ground wire which seems to make them more consistent and work better. Price includes two which is everything you need for one car.

Re: LED flasher question
scfbody - It doesn't appear there's enough room to plug in the hazard relay due to some metal brace in the way.
