SO CAN ANYONE GIVE ME A CLUE WHERE THE DAMM THING IS HIDING i have just found out that my old bulb indicators were 21w and my led ones are only 2w! so i connected an extra bulb into the circuit just to drain the power and it works so you ether have to get 2 resistors, 1 for the left side and 1 for the right side or buy a low wattage relay. hope this helps.
