The low cost option was to buy a $420 factory wiring harness and switch, purchase my own lights and install myself. I bet I can buy all the parts and make my own for under $100! Great and inspiring tutorial.

Like the basics, good refresher, but you probably might add running lights like ones found on my old 1983 kawasaki 750 ltd. The reason I feel it would be beneficial is the front and rear running lights the turn signals share the same single filament bulb and a 2 conductor flaher. This would help those whom don't understand how that one filament can flash when the lights are on, trouble shoot more effectively. So it is my opinion. If you would include the ignition switch and turn signal switch and maybe the separate two conductor hazard flasher could be even more beneficial for understanding what real world scenarios, such as chasing a bad wire/connector or multifunctional switch like in my 04 Ford f350 can greatly complicate simple circuits such as a flasher

Newer vehicles don't have a replaceable flasher relay (like my 2014 Xterra). So your only other options are loading resistors or get CANBUS rated LEDs for your car/SUV/truck. The CANBUS LEDs have circuitry that pulls normal halogen/incandescent current which fools the cars electronics into thinking you are using halogen/incandescent bulbs. Not all vehicles will work properly with the CANBUS rated LEDs so you may have to go with loading resistors. The downsides to the loading resistors is heat dissipation and if the LED goes bad the car's electronics will think the LED is still good because the loading resistors are still pulling the same amount of current. That's why you should check your lighting on a regular basis - but it's obvious that a lot of people won't do that.

@@AndyMechanic I just got a pair of CANBUS LEDs (CK socket type) for my front turn signal lights on my 2014 Xterra and they work great. No hyperflash when you install the CANBUS LEDs in both the front and rear. CANBUS LEDs make for a cleaner install (compared to resistor kits) but they don't fix hyperflash on all vehicles (according to my research).

You forgot to hook up your ground to the metal mounting bracket on the red colored electronic relay. That is why it did not work. Normally, if the relay was mounted, it would get it's ground through the frame of the vehicle. I sure you just forgot.

This is super helpful!!! I've recently installed LED's on all the exterior flasher bulbs on my 86 GMC K1500 they worked good with the bulbs installed for all the rear lights then when I installed the front flasher LED bulbs they all flashed very slow. I'm assuming its either a problem with my relay or the load is somehow being blocked from LEDs between the front or back. I was going to try load resistors to even out the ammount of power going to the LED's. now that I've watched your video I think the flasher relays may be more of the problem though.

Hi, ah, that's easy. The output from the relay that you have going to the bulb. That's the feed to the left/right switch. Then from the switch just run the power feed, in parallel, to each of your indicator bulbs. The other wire from each bulb goes to ground. Hope this helps Cheers Andy

Hi Andy, Today I picked up four much brighter Navra LED amber blinker lights and my new CF14JL-02 three pin electronic relay. Sadly I can't make the system blink yet. Changing this relay back to the old non electronic 3 pin relay made all the lights work on Hazard but they still don't blink. Same happens when either left or right indicator is selected and just that side comes on and doesn't blink. Question, Are there different ratings in electronic relays? Should I have used a two pin instead? Many thanks for your help. David.

Hi David, a true electronic type relay shouldn't be dependent on load to trigger flashing unlike the old bimetalic mechanical type. However, given the relay works correctly when actuating all the indicator lamps (hazard mode) then I would suggest maybe swapping the relay for a lower wattage one - the pin layout must be correct as the relay works when under a higher load. Hope this is of help Andy
