LED flasher surprise

[bc3j]

Just finished adding LEDs to the parking lights (previously had all other exterior lights except headlights changed over).  I was surprised to find that the hazard flasher currently in the car works with the LEDs. The flash rate is just barely slower than with the incandescent parking lights. Being the third owner of the car, I don't know if that flasher had ever been changed. I did change the turn signal flasher with no problems. I'm going to leave things as they are for now.  Don't know what to make of the flasher. Always thought it wouldn't work.

Some LEDs have built in load resistors.

Maybe they do and I'm not aware of that. Superbright parking and Sylvania Zevo for taillights. Thanks for the info.

Yep: Sometimes you need a no load flasher and sometimes not it seems.

And sometimes you need to reverse the polarity of the factory connector to work with the no load flasher..... like I did.
