Hi there,
I want to change my indicators to LEDs.
I only want to change the back as I am going to do a headlight cluster change in the future.
But the relay thinks the bulbs have gone because they are drawing so little power.
How do I stop them from flashing fast (relay thinks they’re dead)?

I have just received some in the post. Also for the brake/side lights do I need these as it throws asr and cruise control errors, but once I put the normal bulbs in they disappear.
The same problem would apply here wouldn’t it, as the car thinks the bulbs have gone

I used Auto Lighting LEDs for all my lights in and out of the vehicle. The indicators are really bright and work flawlessly without any issues!
These are the indicators I have on the front and rear, they're a little pricey now but when the sales on they're worth getting.
Indicators:

Hope this helped!
