Frantic Flashers

[tusk]

Do all Tuscan indicators flash like they're on speed ie going twice as fast as everybody else's? Fine when you're on a mission, but a bit annoying when you're cruising!!

Sounds to me like your missing a bulb (blown)


Just as a side issue, Tuscan threads need to be posted in the Tuscan Forum!!



(God that 21TVR is sound like my b****y dad!)

All bulbs checked and they are all ok, flashes at normal speed on hazards but on left or right winks twice as fast.

Is this normal?

Phew!!!

Thought that was a reference to me in the title....

Talk to your dealer your LED indicators have a seperate resistor in the unit to bring the resistence of the light pod up to that of a normal bulb. If you have a problem with the unit or the resitor is blown it will lower teh resistance of the unit. If it is at a low resisitance the flasher unit detects this and thinks it is a blown bulb and flashs at the higher rate.

If your dealer can't help speak to Paul at the factory who designed the electrics.

Although i have a Griff i have LED indicators all round and i had to do a small mod to the OE flasher so as to fool it into thinking a bulb had not blown. In fact a resistor across the LEDs to(lower the resistance)to fool the flasher didnt work for me. Iam sure the factory would do it much more professional than just cutting a bit of print.
