LED Indicator issue
Hi all
another day a new issue!
I have got a set of the LED indicators and relay from Slaughterhouse but 1 of them isnt working.
If i switch the bulb from the one that doesn't work with 1 that was working, the same 1 doesn't work (my front right indicator)
but if i put my original bulb in it works fine.
any ideas as to why?
I thought at first it must just be a blown bulb but seeing as it works in a different indicator I'm confused

Re: LED Indicator issue
At a simple guess I would say your bulbs are polarity sensitive and the wires on the non-working corner need swapping over.

Re: LED Indicator issue
back to another issue with these same indicators......
the relay now constantly clicks as soon as the ignition is turned on, does that point to a faulty relay?
ive had to remove the led bulbs and back to stock bulbs and stock relay as the clicking was so annoying all the time.

Re: LED Indicator issue
Sounds like a resistance issue .
Direction indicators are the only bulbs other than headlights I haven’t changed to LED , they are such low hour usage I didn’t see the point

Re: LED Indicator issue
Bad Earth? Problem with stalk?
If it’s clicking as soon as key in its receiving power somehow without stalk making circuit?

Re: LED Indicator issue
but it has only happened since switching to the led's. back to stock and all is fine no issues
think i'll just leave them out.
and when i say clicking... it doesnt actually make the indicators turn on all the time.... just the clicking noise at the relay

Re: LED Indicator issue
Relay will only click if receiving power, doesn’t take much.

Re: LED Indicator issue
Hmm - very odd.
The relay for this is quite simple -
Pin 1 (49).
From Hazard switch (pin 49 - white).
This takes it's voltage supply from:-
Ignition live from the hazard switch (pin 15 - black / blue) from fuse 19 (for the indicator stalk) when hazard switch is off.
Or
permanent live input to the hazard switch (pin 30 - white / red) from fuse 4 when the hazards are switched on.
Pin 3 (49a).
Switched ground for all indication bulbs including dash tell-tale led.
Pin 4 (31).
Relay ground - internally connected to pin 1 via the relay electronics.
There is no ground wire - it is hard-wired within the fuse box.
Not sure why led indicators would change anything despite having a much reduced internal resistance and current consumption.
In "normal" set ups, it would simply cause the relay to flash quicker as if a bulb had blown.
Faulty relay perhaps?.
Faulty hazard switch?.
You have got me confused there. ????
