Third Brake Light Strobe

Donolie · May 22, 2017

I swapped out my 3rd brake light with an LED bulb and used one of these, no issues so far. The first 3 flashes are definitely fast, almost to fast, but after that you get slower flashes then steady light.

Does changing the third brake light bulb cause an error? I've only installed LEDs in reverse, cargo, license plate bulb. I've already ordered the flasher off ebay.

None that I'm aware of. But I also have factory LED brake lights.

That was me. It was a dealer add on from Red Alert. I ended up just leaving it.
