Most ppl don't use thier signal turn light.
Felix Begay realest comment ever 😂
I use my hand with the finger lol
This video is 4 years old and still helped more than other videos I’ve seen,I had to subscribe
Thanks brotha! My videos have definitely come a long way since then too and there is much more to come!
@@Faix.Garage yeah I definitely followed
You know the kids a real gearhead when he stops mid explanation and says "a really cool Silverado just pulled up next to me" classic!
Glad to know this exists. I bought Lasfit bulbs that have built in load resistors, but the Silverados dim the front turn signals, so it bypasses their load resistors. I always thought the replacement flashers lost the "tick tock" to let you know your turn signals are on, but yours is still there so I'll be looking at getting that :D
On that note, if you want your tinted turn signals to be much, much brighter, get the Lasfit 3157 anti-hyper flash. They run about $50 a pair, but they are hella bright. At night with my headlights off I could almost use them as fog lamps because they're so bright.
I know I’m late to this comment. But I have a Silverado too and bought very similar lights. (Just by SyneticUsa opposed to Lasfit, though my head lights and high beams are lasfit) nice and bright as well. Anti-hyper flash. But it still has the hyper flash. Did this get rid of the hyper flash?
@@donovanmccary7430 Yep, I eventually had to buy an LED compatible flasher. Even with all four turn signals using the LASFIT anti-hyperflash, it would still do it.
Now I kinda regret spending the extra when I could have bought the $15 LASFIT bulbs instead and just use the new flasher. Oh well, it's how we learn.
I have this nice little 2000 Saturn I bought while I could do some work to the truck and I'll probably try it with that and just replace the flasher instead of getting the more expensive bulbs.
Even my 1985 Parisienne had electronic flasher module that detected burn out turn signal bulbs. BTW, most turn signal bulbs are not halogen, it's the headlights, foglights that are halogen to better light the road in front of you.
Thank you so much for this video i have just replaced my turn signal bulbs in my 2002 Silverado and was trying to find a way around installing the load resistors and all that wiring Thank you so much.
Hell yea bro! Glad it helped
It does that because there isn't enough resistance to keep them at a slower pace, not because it's a safety measure. There's a bonus in that design knowing when you have a signal out, but its simply because it lost resistance.
I have an 03 gmc sierra. I put the leds in the turn signals and now the left blinks fast but the right doesn't blink at all. I put the resistors in and it's the same thing
Good easy to follow explanation and even better that it is walked through. Great tutorial video.
Some vehicles don't have flasher relays. The flash is controlled by the BCM.
Like my Seat Ibiza. Spent hours looking online for the location only to discover it doesn't have one!
@@liamdonaldson9196 I couldn't find one for my navigator, so I'll just get the bulbs that have the resistor built in for turn signals. Far as the tail lights, might have to throw resistors on them since, they will be on more often and probably cook from the inside out
That would be more awesome, it means it just need programming instead of buying a different relay
Besides the resistors is there any other way to fix that problem if the truck doesn’t have the flasher relay?
Programming that sort of thing is impractical and/or nigh impossible (edit: on some/most cars). Take my 2005 Volvo S60R for instance. Brake lights are controlled by the CEM, and doing anything to the CEM on one of those Volvos takes balls
I own a 2000 Chrysler Concorde LXI, and it did it with my car too. I can’t do a relay, all my lights are fused? I bought LED’s with the resistors, built in. Waiting on them? Can’t wait to see if they work?
I have an 04 Silverado 2500 hd and i like your fix better would it work on my truck since it is 2 years older i don't want to do resistors
The resisters I had on my chevy burned out now I going use a relay thanks man
Why the fuck didn't the guy at the auto parts store know this? I'm glad I didn't go the resistor route and looked around. Thanks.
Well opened mine up and of course it looks nothing like the video. Mines much fatter and difficult to get out, if it even comes out. Someone must’ve done something to it at some point.
yay its worked for a replaced new flasher relay in my 1999 chevy Silverado 1500, headlight and taillight both LEDs signals. thank you.
Jessie Munroe-Murer glad to hear it!
Exactly what I needed to know!!
Open the old blinker and put more resistance on the spring it works nice 👍
Huh
@@leezee5150😂
Should I remove the resistors I have on and just out this on alone? I still get hyper flash on my passenger side only not driver
What if I have resistors installed in my vehicle on one side? Will this relay still work?
Good info, thank you - I was about to go the much more tasking route of crimping in multiple resistors, but this is much easier, and makes more sense. Plus resistors get hot, so when you tuck all your bulbs and wiring back into the light housing, you need clear placement of those load resistors. Best thing with mine, the relay was behind the glove box, simply released a clip, and it was a 10 second job.
Those flashers relays at O'Rileys were $17
Thank you for posting this video really like when you explain what you have to do in the videos
Jesus Guerrero glad it helped 🤙🏻
Worked for me on my 99 silverado, had to trim the clipping area thay holds the relay to fit the newer one it was a little bigger than the original.
07 and up GM Vehicles do not have a flasher relay, all controlled by the BCM
What about the 2018 Chevy Silverado 2500/3500?
@@kretonne5K Controlled by BCM, no flasher relay on those.
What does having no flasher relay mean?
We have to use load resistors?
It means that the signals are all controlled by the BCM, electronically. The only way to stop the hyper flashing is adding/tapping in load resistors, yes.
I wonder if that means HP Tuners can change the resistance rating of the blinkers in the software.
That would mean even easier than swapping a relay, let alone wire in resistors..
Hi! I hope you read me :) Bought LED bulbs H11 for a Ford Ranger 2016 XLT. The bulbs works well with the car not running, just the switch-on. When the engine is running, once I turn-on the lights they turn-off by themselves in a second. A troubleshooting? Will a different relay work in this case? Any leads will be much appreciated. P.S. I visited 2 electricians here and they couldn't help me (not the most proficient people in the country I'm residing tho, with all respect). No errors on dashboard. I've installed the Fog lights, more simple LED bulb, and they're working well. These H11 headlight bulbs are just 40W each, original is 55W. Trying to avoid a Canbus Decoder / resistor. Thank you in advance!
Bro you the man! I’m restoring my dads old 2000 Silverado 1500, thanks fam!
jacob cortez hell ya brotha good luck🤙🏻
Was about to ask if it would be the same with an 05’ Yukon but you convinced me with your comment! 👍🏾
Thanks bro. Worked on my 03 Burban
Julian Trujillo hell yea man🤙🏻
Works great on my signals and taillights
If your computer controls the flashing do the built in resistor harness so you don't splice oem harness, they run for about 13 dollars.
Was your cruise control not working prior to this mod. Did it start working again.
I just did this right now and it worked!!! Thank you so much!!!
Badass glad it helped bro!
@@Faix.Garage did the same thing for my dad’s tahoe too.
@@Valdemar-Perez-III nice!
On some cars or Truck the driver is in the (BCM) Body control module for the headlights and the fog lights if you put in led bulbs that has high draw form the bulbs you could burn your bcm i have seen this a lot of dodge products.
I installed a LED compatible flasher on my 06 Silverado and my front turn signals work fine. How ever when I put LED bulbs in the rear I get no flashing at all! I put the halogen bulbs back in the rear turn signals and started working again. Really throwing me for a loop because normally in the past where I have swapped the flasher for an LED compatible flasher relay it worked fine. I think I am going to have to use resisters on my rear turn signals in order to use LED bulbs on the rear.
Wow that’s weird never heard of that happening before! Thanks for sharing
I just swapped this same relay in my 2006 with a new flasher module that was supposed to be led friendly but still have no blinkers at all was thinking resistors are needed to? Any help would be great!
Corther G sounds like it might be the wrong part for your truck or a fuse is most likely blown. Resistors are not needed
Tyler Faix I put the resistors in and it instantly fixed the problem 👍🏻
This was before I've seen this video, I went to Orileys and the dude kept trying to get me to buy resistors and that a flasher wouldnt work, I bought a flasher anyhow, got home, plugged it in and bam, no hyper flash, some people dont deserve thier jobs. That or he was just trying to get me to buy their in house resistors for way more than the relay.
Damn what a guy 😂 glad you made the right move! Much easier than resistors
Wow tht employee a douche nozzle !
1999 chevy Tahoe LT 5.7L 4x4 I'm trying to find one
Where can I purchase the same relay? My LED high beams don’t work and have hyper flash for directional signals. Thanks in advance 👍🏼
Auto zone should have it you just have to tell them the year make and model of your truck
Very helpful, thank you. Do you know if the headlights/rear lights also need relays/resistors if I’m replacing the bulbs with LEDs? I have an 06 Silverado
Resistors are only needed on the blinkers or skip the resistors all together and get the LED relay!
QUICK QUESTION IM TRYING TO LOCATE THE TURN SIGNAL FLASHER WIRE AND I HAVE NO LUCK DOES ANYONE KNOWS THE COLOR AND LOCATION LEFT AND RIGHT ( 05 Chevy Silverado) IM TRYING TO CONNECT MY TURN SIGNAL MIRRORS AND MINE IS THE BASE MODEL
Does that fix the cruise problem too?, with LED tail lights
Yeah make sure is novita relay works on my dodge 1999 too, hate cutting harness with resistor.
Thank you for this!!!
Glad it helped!
Where can i buy the flasher relay for LED? I installed new led light (front) for turn signals, but once i change the turn signals at the back, start the hyper flashings again! All the led are Build-in Load Resistor. Maybe that flasher solve the problem
Autozone
Beautiful truck man. It sounds so good.
Thanks brotha!
Question, if I use the flasher instead of the resistors, what will happen when hauling a trailer with incandescent lights?
Trailer should have no effect
I know this video is two years old but some chevy trucks (older probably 99-07) need to see the resistance on the brake light circuit in order for cruise control to work. Changing to led brake lights may make your cruise control not work.
That’s wild! Thanks for letting me know, I had no idea why my cruise control just stopped working on my 99! The 05 has all LED and its cruise control works just fine but my 99s does not. What’s weird is I’m pretty sure it did immediately after I put the lights in but now it does not.
I have this in my 01 silverado. It works but I lost my cruise control. Any ideas on how to keep cruise with this relay?
No clue, it didn’t effect my cruise control. Check out some forums online, I’m sure other people have had the same issue
i ordered this for my 2004 gmc sierra and where the factory flasher is on ur truck is one about double the size on mine; making the ep29 too small for it
Tiredhearts5 if you go to a store like autozone they should have the right one in stock.
How did yours work I installed a relay in mine and one side wouldn’t flash so I just left the front signals in
That’s weird I might to exchanging it for a new one, mine worked just fine as supposed to
@@Faix.Garage I really hope it just the relay because I don’t want to install resistors
Hey i got a question i change my old bulbs turns signal for led and the led star burning by itself i don't know why
Yea sorry man not a clue that’s pretty weird
Thanks man! Going in tomorrow lmao
did it work?
@@Itsaustinnnyo yes it did!
I like the fast flashing,does it hurt anything ?
Nope it doesn’t hurt anything, if you like it by all means leave it! The reason they made it do that is so that when a blinker bulb burns out you have an indicator that it’s out so you can fix it.
What mirrors are those? Also do they have powered mirrors or no? Like em'.
I had Johnny Huie built them for me. They are powered. Hit him up if you want a pair

Great info thank you
JustAnAverageJoe glad I could help thanks for watching
How do u make your side marker led flash at the same time with the actual turn signal mine does the turn signal first then the side marker
It only flashes both at the same time when both the head and park lights are turned off.
I did this and i dont have hyperflash anymore but my cruise control doesnt work now.. any ideas?
That’s strange I have no clue
Dude whats your exhaust setup love it
kyler sempel cat back true duel, 2.5” pipes to 4” tips no mufflers no cross over. I had to cut it off to put my new trainhorn on so I’m going to be getting it redone with something a little different soon
@@Faix.Garage straight pipes😁
Is it bad for your vehicle or the lights to hyper flash?
BIG ARMADEOOO nope nothing bad about it other than it’s annoying to me
I had to tilt steering and move shifter in order to remove that top piece of the dash.
What is the part number for 2018 Colorado
Part number on the relay? I have a 2005 silverado so it should be the same part number..
Xavier Salinas not sure it was so long ago, sorry. If you tell Auto Zone your make and model they can find it for you.
How did you get the white led lights to come on when you opened the door?
@@rosedalesfinestyoungen6497 the ones in the mirrors? They just always have
Hello, I added a led bulb in the til light but the cruise control did not work, do the relays solve the problem? gmc yukon xl 2003 2500
Your cruise control doesn’t work before or after installing the relay?
@@Faix.Garage
Before adding the LED it worked but after adding the LED it did not work
I bought a relay, but it has not arrived yet. If it arrives, I will give it a try
@@a.m-gh7876 weird I don’t know why that would affect it, let me know if the relay fixes it
@Faix.Garage
The relay it's original one right now
What if I add blinker fluid?
Black Sunday Jess that actually doubles the horse power but it’s a secret so don’t tell anyone 🤫
Or simply buy a non-hyper flash led bulb. They have standard watts
Or just buy this
Can you link where you got the led turn signal bulbs
Xusez go in to AutoZone and tell them your make and model, it’s different for each vehicle, that is what I did
where can i find the relay on my 2014 dodge ram 1500?
Works2G go to your local oriels
Tyler Faix like location wise only thing I could find was one clicking in the fuse box under the hood
Works2G oh haha sorry about that, ya it’ll probably be by the fuse box in the engine bay or u see the dash
Is it the Novita Technologies 13.5 Amp 4 Terminal Turn Signal Flasher - EP29
Thats what I'm looking for! I don't want resistors no heat & less power consumption!
Hey man, not that it matters a whole lot, but just figured I'd let you know that the hyperflash is actually caused because of the fact that the led provides much MORE resistance than a halogen bulb, allowing much less current to flow through it, which is why they use so much less power. The truck knows how much power a halogen bulb is supposed to draw, and when it fails to draw that much power then it hyperflashes because there's "not enough" current flowing through the circuit (since LEDs are so efficient). Even though it sounds like adding a resistor will provide more resistance, wiring one in parallel actually does the opposite. Adding a resistor in parallel pretty much just creates a controlled short circuit that allows more electricity to flow through, not less. Basically just takes away the efficiency of the LEDs and makes them use as much power as a halogen so the truck doesn't get confused. Again, not that it matters haha but just figured it doesn't hurt to know. Love the truck!
Jared Motschenbacher wow thank you for the information dude! That makes sense, thanks for commenting. Always nice to know more
Ok my led turn signal won’t even hyperflash they just won’t work
Swap them the other way
Truck sounds like a diesel. What exhaust do you have? I have a black widow and a Cat delete.
Cat back 5” straight pipe now, in this video I think I had true duel, cat back 2.5” straight pipes
Does this work on GMC Sierra 2006?
Yes
Can anyone tell me what that tailgate spare tire mount system is called? Manufacturer/model/how to search it for my truck!?!? Thank you in advance
It’s a wilco tire gate, I’ll link their website here

@@Faix.Garage Thanks brother
What about the new body style of 2007 Chevy Silverado?
Where’d you get those white tow mirrors ?
George Cardenas retrodiodes on Instagram, it’s Johnny Huie. Email him at retrodiodes@gmail.com if you wanna pair
put one Led in my 04 silverado got hyperflash so instead of buying a relay taking the dash apart , I think I'll just go back to the regular bulb. !!!!!!
It’s not that hard to do and LEDs are cool! They look better and last longer.
Anyone have a part number? I called oriellys and they had no idea what I’m talking about
Hey Tyler, just changed my Turn signals to LED’s on my 2001 Sierra. Thinking of going the flasher relay route to stop my hyper flash. Just wondering if you’ve had any issues to date with the EP29 relay on your truck? Thanks
Hey man! No issues what so ever
will this work for a 2008 chevy silverado ?
Yes you’ll just need to get the one specific to your vehicle but it does have the same module
i put my resister in my o5 tahoe an they got very hot .do u know why
Hence the large heatsink. Each one needs to dissipate ~25W
@@SerenoOunce yes 50 watts per each 1 an the gott 200 degrees
Will this work for my single cab 03 chevy 1500 ?
Santania yes
Tyler Faix is your truck model year an 02 because i called my local autoparts store and that specific model doesn’t fit my 03 model
Santania each year has a different middle just tell them your year and they should have the same product for your truck
Thanks for leaving a link for the product! Wtf
Matt Drenkow it’s different for every vehicle bud! Walk your happy ass down to auto zone like I said in the video and figure out what one works for your car or truck 👍🏻
what kind of enguine you have ?
julian cortes 4.8L V8. The actual name of it is LR4
Jeez that pickup is riced right out. At least it's not my style. And that relay is different for 03-07s. It's just above the one you replaced and is longer. There's video on that one to.
What brand switch backs,’ ?
Also did you have to splice yellow to black ?
Does not work for 06 serria sle. They have the long relay
where did you get the flasher relay?
Autozone
What’s the model number on relay?
What kind and the part number. I called O'Reilly and they either didn't know what I was talking about or didn't have it
Not all trucks and cars have turn signal flashers, the smart junction box controls the turn signals!!.
My led disabled my cruse control
Will this work on my 2003 suburban...
hammie mays yes
@@Faix.Garage does it go in the same spot for my 2003 suburban bc I ordered led but took them.out bc of hyper flash and didn't want to put the resistors on bc I was wanting to know another way besides the resistors. If so I'll go get mines today let me know. And if it work I'll put a video in comment section thanking you for advice
hammie mays ya it should be exactly the same on the suburban as on the trucks
@@Faix.Garage ok I will let you know
This is the one you need for the Suburban..Novita LM487 Flasher..amazon

What?
hey its kolton nice sounding truck
What up bro! Hopefully it sounds even better by the time our Trinity trip comes around again
What exhaust do you have
