OK so I'm trying to figure this out before I just go back to standard bulbs all around...
I have Sylvania ZEVO 3157 LED bulbs in my rear brake lights and those work great. I also have an LED in my top 3rd brake light which works great.
I also have swapped in the appropriate Relay w/is supposed to be good for both incandescent and LED bulbs.
My problem is when I try and swap in the same ZEVO 3157 LED's into the blinkers (either in the front or the rear)... Here's what happens.
When the parking lights are off... and I flip the blinker on, the opposite side brake light/LED also very lightly flashes in sync w/the turn signal. Turning left... the left blinker blinks and the right brake light blinks... If I have the parking lights on then the brake lights don't flash w/the blinker.
If I leave in the old incandescent bulbs in the blinker location then all the lights work as they should. Is there an easy way to fix this or would I be better off just putting the older style incandescent bulb in the blinker locations? I don't get the hyper-flash issue due to the proper relay being installed.
Any insight is appreciated. I know LED's aren't necessary, but they are much brighter and also have a quicker blink/flash then the old incandescent bulbs do (not talking about the hyper flash here...). I really like the look if it's possible to have on my old '01 XJ.
