LED relay?

[lumanikus]

Hey is anyone making a blinker relay to cure the LED fast blink issue / error panel?

You can buy solid state flashers at just about any auto parts stores. They use a computer chip to control the flashing, so the LED's don't affect it.

why not just run a resistor in line with the LED?

Because it's the really ghetto way of doing it? And you have to do it with EVERY bulb. Solid state flasher just plugs in and is done. All bulbs taken care of.

I scoured every local parts store and I couldn't come up with any. Not for an e30, not amber and red. I have to have colored LED's because of the lenses I'm running.

I'm not going to run inline resistors, that"s not happening.
If anyone knows of good led's amber red , please link me? Projects are piling up
I would like to get the "little" wins ya know?

Dunno man both my local autozone and Napa carry led tails and iirc the correct wedge sidemarker bulbs

The flasher isn't an LED. It's what makes the turn signals flash. You won't find one specific for an E30, they are universal. Something like this:

Thanks, after you guys had mentioned how common the led's with built in error correction was i looked again. With new search terams that apparently made all the difference. I ordered a few and ill see what happens when the get here. For now i have the fast blink going.
