How about 60 LED DRL and Turn Signal in one bulb!

The LED flashers will also flash the original incandescent bulbs. Pull out all the LED bulbs and replace them with OEM bulbs and see if it remedy the problem.

 

I believe that the faster flashing is also illegal. So you are going from one illegal condition to another. Obviously, flashing fast is safer than not flashing if those are your only two choices.

 

My first replacement flasher relay did that too.

The even newer relay that I replaced it with is flawless and fairly cheap, too: Toyota Lexus 8 Pin 12V Electronic LED Flasher Blinker Bulbs Relay Fix

Hope that helps!

 

Mine works flawlessly!

 

Silly question but how well does the replacement 7443 socket fit the car opening? When I installed the web electronic DRL I messed up and had to order replacement socket from Flea bay. I do not think the socket I bought fits very well and am looking for replacement. Also thanks for the tip on where to tap power.

 

sorry I was going to order the 7440 version. My fleabay purchase continues to get worse and worse. Finally went to check the bulb and lo and behold the bulb was no longer in the socket. Where pray tell you might ask it went? The bulb is now floating around the turn signal "shelf". Darn bulb ejected from the socket. How much danger do you thing there would be if I left the bulb loose for now and simply replace it?

 

SAE recommend 60-120 flashes/minute with an ideal of 90. I believe only a few states have a rate specified in their vehicle code.

 

Update: one or both of my LED's shorted out after a week and started blowing fuses. I simply replaced the switchback bulbs with amber 7443's and all is good. Of course this meant I cold use the stock flasher again. To be honest, I think the stock amber bulb is more noticeable in direct sunlight.

So in summary I could have saved $70 and just used the incandescent bulbs from the start

 

I am glad I stayed with the stock bulb. Looks like the LED bulbs' quality is kind of hit or miss.

 

cannot get power to the DRLs any suggestions?

 

You getting power when the signal is on?

Double chk the connection ur using for the DRL power. If it flashes when the signal is on, its not the gnd, its the pos lead.

 

what signal are you talking about? the turn signals work fine. i have trouble locating an accessory lead for the DRL function; the purple wire mentioned does not work.

 

Oh, that makes more sense. If u have a wire tester, I would check to make sure the purple wire is getting power. If it is, how did u tap in? Cut & splice, tap connection etc. Make sure its tap in correct. If not the purple wire, there should be 3 more wires u can try. I just don't remember what color. U would have to test them till u find the right 1.

Hope this helps

 

I'm probably the only one with bad luck with these bulbs. Another white LED bit the dust. This is the third bulb where the white LED won't light up and instead amber LED.

 

Hello
I just want to thank you for the posting. I failed on my LED signally attempt.However I like your approach and creativity. My questions and concerns are on the front signals and wiring diagram for the sockets to vehicle connections. I am assume the red lead hot tap wire into fuse box is shared by both modified sockets and other is ground but where? Also does your dash indicators work correctly when you drive and signal and how do you go to day run light ON???
