Hey BLK2KTIB, they have those at Canadian Tire?
They MIGHT be able to get them...depends on how experienced the counterman is.

They sell a load equalizer or something at autozone. In my store its in the bulb aisle, all the way at the end of the bulbs, on the top, next to the LED bulbs.

^^ I'm guessing each store faces products in different locations in the store nana.gif thanks though..
I just bought 2 load resistors, I was going to get a flasher, but the LED flashers don't make the clicking noise. I like to know when my blinkers are on, so I don't become one of those idiots that drive around with their blinker on for 10 miles and not even know it.

Mine clicks. I think it might not be as loud as it once was.. But it has to click for it to do it's job unless you have an aftermarket flasher..
I like my fast blinkers... It makes people check out my car. Plus with LEDs, it looks cool how a incandescant bearly goes out fully at a slow pace, but even at the faster pace the LED keeps up. The only reason i'd get the load resistors is to have the ability to know if a blinker goes out. it dosn't really matter to me though, I can check them at night in my side view mirrors or my backup camera.

This is what you need:
Grote Part # 44892 about $12 from any parts store. Just replace the OEM one from under your dash with this one and the blinking goes back to normal. The OEM flasher blinks fast due to the LED bulbs using less current to operate "tricking" the flasher to think the bulb is burnt out.

Tha's what I was talking about right there.

I just installed LED corners as well, the blink when the lights are off but when I turn on my lights they dont blink at all, just stay yellow. Could this be a problem with the LEDs, or could a new flasher help?
