Replaced the existing filament turn signal bulbs with led bulbs. Tired of replacing broken bulbs due to vibration. Anyone know what 2 pin flasher relay will work? I have tried 3 different brands. I have yet to find one that will allow the bulbs to flash. Trying hard not to have to wire in resistors. Thanks

If they are not flashing at all, you don't have enough of a load. The LED flashers are supposed to get you around that, but it seems like whatever signals you got are a really light load. You may need to add resistors after all.

Hey
Mod did not work. Thanks for that info though.
Heard about that trick from local HD guy.
I got it.....just kept trying relays....50$ later and I found one. I will attach picture of led bulbs and relay. Persistence baby.
Like you said....load so low.
Thanks

Grote 44893 - plug and play 3 pin relay replacement for LED for Buell XB. I use it in my 2009 Buell XB 12 Scg.

You need 3 pin relay.

I found a flasher designed for LED's - (it has an adjustment for load) on Ebay.
It's an inexpensive flasher from China.... it'll take a while to show up, but for a buck-and-a half, what the heck.
I put one on a project bike on which I was replacing incandescent turn signals with LED turn signals, and it worked well.

I just saw this post that people were looking for a flasher for LED's, so I looked it up on Ebay again.
A flasher that looks just like the one I bought (and you can see the adjustment screw on the base) has the following Ebay listing title:

1x 2-Pin Motorcycle Speed Adjustable LED Turn Signal Indicator Flasher Relay 12V

I would give the Ebay item number, but that is only good for a month or so, but if they keep selling them on Ebay, maybe the title will remain the same.

All the best, and I hope this helps!

Jim
