LED Flasher/Light Issues After Swap

[Ian Mills]

I did an LED exterior light swap (every single bulb), I put an LED flasher in, and I have two related issues.

 

1) When I turn on the hazards, all the turn signals and the brake lights flash. The brake lights shouldn't be doing that.

 

2) When the low beams are on, the turn signals show up as being constantly on on the dash and the signals and flashers don't work. (Flashing the high beams does not cause this issue, just the low beams)

 

Neither of these issues were around before I did the lights. I did the backs first and neither of the issues were present at that point either. I'm guessing I need a resistor somewhere but what do y'all think?

Ok, so I was able to fix it and I'm putting the fix here in case anyone was curious. I added a 6 ohm resistor in parallel with both front turn signals (outside 2 wires on the plug) and it fixed both issues. The brake lights were actually the rear running lights which were coming on as if the low beams were powered when the hazards were on.
