Wipac LEDs flashing speed
I just replaced all my lights to led, now signal and hazard lights flash very quickly, just like how usually it goes when you have a blown blub. I thought it's plug and play? Did I do something wrong?

you need to change the flasher unit to a led electronic one , easy to do just remove old one and fit new one , 30sec job

or fit resisters to the lamps , longer job and not as easy as replacing flasher unit

If a bulb Blows then there is a loss of resistance hence the rapid flash.

LED drawes less in the first instance so unit thinks there is one blown.

Either need to put in resistors to each bulb or change relay. TY&GN
