Can anyone explain why...

[chris watton]

The company that fitted my front LED indicators spliced the old standard indicators that were replaced in the rear lights loom?



They are on both sides in the rear light cluster compartment, I just happened to take the covers off for a inspection, and there they were!

Why?

FFS!

Cheers - so, if I change the relay, I can get rid of them? What makes it worse is that I actually supplied the resistors for the front LED's!

I should have done them myself, at least I would have done my best to do the job properly like the rear LED's!

Yes it's to correct the flash rate as LED has lower resistance. The two rear lights on their own would ave been fine. I did the same whilst I waited for the LED relay to arrive. Don't go down the resistor route it looks untidy. Relay is about £7 off eBay

Hi Shep. I have the LED flasher relay, can I add it and keep the rear light resistors in place?

[chris watton]

Cheers. I have the relay, so I shall fit that and remove the front indicators from the rear when I get my Tam back.

What I don't get is the fact that I actually supplied the resistors to go with the front LED's. I (naturally) assumed they were fitted at they weren't in the boot when I looked, when I got the car back.

I can only conclude that I can no longer assume that certain TVR specialist will do a professional job, and that sometimes, you are more likely to do a better job yourself...

What flasher unit did you use? I would like to remove my resistors. Thanks

I got it from EBay after following a link from another thread.

The flasher relay is:

CF14 JL-02

Am yet to fit it..
