had those for the past 5 years now and now i noticed that my right side blinker indicator stays on when my headlights are on:banghead: i spent all sunday figuring this out and thinking that i am now getting feed back from that LED board.
anybody else going through this?

Converted my 83 elco to all led's a few years ago along with flasher.. Both indicators stay mostly lit with headlights. Someone from digitalis told me when inquiring about their products that my lights right now aren't putting enough of a load on the flasher. More lights or a load resister may be needed in my case.
Any right side lights not fully lit?

You need what is called a "no load flasher". Led lights don't pull enough current to heat the bimetal strip inside the flasher to make it operate. This will fix it

Also if its actually off you may have a bad ground. Lose a ground on any park/turn and the light generally lights up the dash indicator. Its a back feed, but yeah get an electronic flasher, they are generally much more resilient and work better period. I use them on vehicles with direct control through trailer plug. This means you dont use an adapter box for wiring trailer lights and car switches hold all loads. Those are designed for cars with divorced turn/brake lights.

Look forward to hearing how this turns out. I'm rewiring my car now with all LEDs and LED flashers.

Hi there- I had a similar problem with the lights in my 64 Malibu. All LED's for signals & dash lights. I used LED flashers too. I ended up switching my indicator bulbs back to regular so there was a bit of current draw and this cured the problem.
