    Flasher relay for LED bulbs

    When restoring my light assemblies I put in all new LED bulbs. At first the turn signals wouldn't work so I added a flasher relay made for LED bulbs. Now all the lights and signals work, but any time the ignition is on, whether any lights are on or not, the relay is always clicking. Not sure what is going on... 1972 911T targa.

    Anyone else had this issue? If so, any solution??

    Who did you purchase the LED bulbs and relay from? Curious, because I recently purchased the same pieces , but not yet installed. I got mine from CarMagic, and have found him very helpful and responsive to questions.

    Had the assemblies rebuilt by Audette and he put in the LED bulbs- not sure of brand. Got the LED relay from a fellow at 914world who does a lot of LED boards on all types of Porsches. I have his LED boards on both my 914's and don't have the same issue with either one of them.

    (I wonder about putting one or two regular bulbs in to see if that makes a difference- an issue with resistance? I'm totally guessing as I am NOT any kind of electrical genius...)
