Hi folks ... Here's a real head scratcher.![Dunno :dunno: :dunno:](/forum/styles/brivium/stylium/potassium/xenforo/smilies/dunno.gif)
I have installed LED Turn Signal Bulbs, Sirius LED with integral Load Resistors (Front) and Oxilam LED with integral Load Resistors (Rear).
In stop and go traffic, they function normally for about the first 60 seconds, then go into Hyperflash mode.
When they have been in Hyperflash mode, I have looked in the reflection of cars around me, and can see that both are working.
The next time I use that blinker, the blinker functions normally again, for the first 5 - 30 seconds, then goes back into Hyperflash mode.
[Left Turn Signal and Right Turn Signal will exhibit this behavior]
I can only assume that the Load Resistors are over heating, and the electrical signal then bypasses the Load Resistor, and pushes the bulb into Hyperflash mode.
However, I can't for the life of me figure out to test and figure out which bulbs are at fault.
I don't do a LOT of driving, where I sit for an extended time with my Turn Signals on ... but it's a real quandary.
Any suggestions or anecdotal stories is welcome.
Thanks
