LED indicator/hazard relay
I have installed the Wipac rear LED bulb kit last September and all seemed to work fine after adjusting the variable relay. However after a few months the indicators & hazard lights stopped working and I bought a new identical relay. When replaced, the problem was solved and they worked for a few more months.

It broke again today! I replaced it once more but the third one malfunctioned in less than 5 minutes of driving. I'm onto the fourth relay in less than a year! What could be causing this issue?

I have heard that it might be related to the earth points. Can someone please explain which ones to check and where they are located? Or any other potential issue which could address this problem?

Earth point on the transfer box is a common culprit to earth path issues.

Worth giving it a check. Thumbs Up $W33T $0U7H3RN $UG4R

I was told in another forum that since my front indicators are still old style bulbs, the are drawing too much current and they are frying the relay. Would this be solved if i change them to leds?
