Hi:
I just replaced the stock rear turn signals on my 02 America with two bullet indicators. However when I select either left or right, all four flash on and off together. I have not done anything to the front ones at all.

Any advice?

Thanks,

Ted

Check you haven't mixed up the live and earth wires at the indicator connections. The earth wire colour isn't the one you expect it to be! (I speak from experience, trust me!)

Thanks for the advice. I discovered that when I just took a chance and reversed the connections. They are backassward for sure! Good to get validation on that. Now I just need to find a relay that will slow down the rate of flashing, and fit where the stock America one does.

Flasher module CF13GL02 worked to correct the flash rate when I changed to LED signals.


09 America, some modifications

No problem buddy, I did the same and it took hours of head scratching to work out where I'd gone wrong! Glad to be of assistance
