Our turn signals are 1156 I bought some 1156 Led bulbs but they do not work anyone know why, The voltage is the same.

 

I have the altezza led tail lights and when my cruise button is on but not enagaged, the cruise light blinks when ever i touch the brake pedal. It does it but does not hurt nothing. And i wanted to put the led 1156 in the rear signals where it is clear factory and the dam things blink fast. They use less voltage and your relay thinks that your taillight is out thats why it blinks fast, kind of like a burnt out one does. I think that we need resistors that will solve this. It was in a forum b4 but could not find it. ANYONE ELSE????

 

To keep from hyperflashing, you'll need a resistor between the hot and the ground on the blinker leads to increase the load. I believe it's a 6 Ohm resistor 50 watt resistor.

Go about half way down on that page. In the stock housing, I wouldn't suggest LED 1156 blubs. Since the bulb goes in at an angle, it is very hard to see the blinkers in the day time. Stick with the halogen bulb, or do something similar to what Araffio did and I'm working on. Check page 9 of my homepage for that.

Are you talking about the front or rear turn signal?

 

If you change just the front, or just the rear, then they will flash really really fast. If you change both front and rear out, they may not flash at all.

 

I was trying to change the front I have altezzas that flash red and I wanted the front to match because I have clear bumper. So the only red bulbs I could find were LED ones.
