I'm looking to order some LED bulbs for my front turn signals. I did some searching but it seemed as though everything I found was people making their own LED boards. Would I need flashers in order for the LED bulbs to blink at a normal rate or will the bulbs be fine?

Also, I am ordering off of superbrightleds.com and they have several options for flashers but I don't know which one I'd need for the 1156 bulb. There is a link to a guide to what I'm assuming would tell me what flasher I'd need but the page cannot be found when I click on it.

by flashers do you mean load resistors?

To be honest I don't know everything LEDs, on the website they have flashers and load resisters and they recommended getting flashers but I'm not sure what the difference would be.

on their website they recommend the flashers for use with LED bulbs as turn signals.

Right that's what I read. My question is would I absolutely need one and if I do, which flasher would work with my car? The guide that they have linked doesn't work it comes up as 404 Not Found. here's the link: http://www.superbrightleds.com/cgi-b...lashers.htm%22
maybe it'll work for you...

You dont necessarily have to have on, but if you dont your blinkers will blink very fast, like the other bulb is out

Yeah I don't want them blinking very fast. I guess I should call them and find out which flasher I should buy?

equalizer = resistor

Well I'm not sure whats going on in the diagram. I see the bulb and socket but where the resistor go? do I cut the wires on the socket and then attach the wires from the resistors to the existing wires?

No need to cut the wires, just tap the wire. If you are just using leds for the turn signals up front, then you will need 2 6ohm load resistors for each side. This will work. There are more instructions in the auction listing.

Ok awesome I understand what's going on now haha The only thing confusing me is that I read on the website that if I'm doing 2 LED turn signals whether it be front only or back only use 2 resistors and if I'm doing front and back then use 4. Basically it's just saying use one resistor for every LED bulb for turn signals, right?

Are the flashers they have listed on their website plug and plays? That's what it looks like to me and they recommend using them instead of resistors...

Correct.

Edit: About the flashers, read nismos post.

I've experimented with LED bulbs, and flashers. Here's what I did. I had the hyper-flashing for a while, but then got tired of it. This is the electronic LED flasher I purchased. It's a direct replacement for the OEM one. No modification required. Take the OEM one off and put this one in. No splicing, no cutting. I didn't want to do the resistor/relay method since this is a simple plug and play.

The 7th one (says NISSAN) is the one you need if you don't want hyperblinking.

Also, LED bulbs do not work in 4th gen front turn signals. You have to swap the + and -. Cut the two wires that go into the turn signal socket and switch them.

First thanks so much for letting me know about this. Second am I just cutting the + and - wires as if I cut them in the middle and instead of going + with + and - with - it'll be + with - and - with +? did that make sense to you? haha so one side of the wire will be red and connected to black.

No problem man. Yeah that is correct. IDK who the genius at Nissan was who decided to wire them like that but thats exactly how you would do it.

ok awesome I'm short on cash right now I ordered a bunch of LEDs for the corner light bumper lights and the courtesy lights on the door haha and also chrome bumper light housing and I don't have a job so I got to stop spending money for now. The Max is in the shop right now getting $400 worth of repairs so I think I'll deal with hyper flashing turn signals for a bit till I order the flashers. Thanks again! I really appreciate it.

New guy here and not looking to beat the dead horse. I did all the lights in my 05 maxima and did the below resistors on all the lights. Now the problem, when I turn or brake the information screen, ac and shift lights go dim as if the parking lights are on until I turn off the turn signal

At night no issues please tell me this is easy to fix or should I just pull the resistors and get LED flashers
Thanks!
