Electric fuel pump causing LED flickering
Discussion
Hoping for some advice on how to fix a new problem.
I have replaced my sidelight bulbs with LED's. They do a great job, however, they flicker, seemingly in reaction to my electric fuel pump.
Will wiring in resistors eliminate the reaction of the pulses from the fuel pump? Or should I be looking to change to a different type of pump that doesn't pulse (if they exist)?

Resistors won't sort it. Capacitors will.
Great, thanks for that! Having had a quick read about capacitors, that makes sense. I am now a bit baffled about which type to use, and how to wire them in? Any tips? I am thinking I can just splice them in for each circuit, after the relay, before the bulb?
Many thanks in advance.
