FItted New Signals And They Flash Too Fast!!!
The stock signals are 27watts each and the new ones I got are 23 watts each! What can I do to get the 27 watt load back? That fast blink is trippin me out! Thanks in advance guys!<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :cheers --><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ...

Hey Pon - Try this - <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.the12volt.com/ohm/page2.asp">The Ohms Law Calculator</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> and <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.the12volt.com/ohm/ohmslaw.asp">Ohms Law Theory</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br> Here's my guess, calculate total resistance value, then wire the additional resistor in parallel, to ground, on the power wire to the bulb. <p><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">Genisx1AtYahooeyDotCommaMomma</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p072.ezboard.com/bexupbrotherhoo ... upElvis</A> at: 7/19/05 11:36 am<br></i>

Got it figured out! 10 ohm 1/2 watt resistor from radio shack, one on each side! No more fast blinky lights for me<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :banana --><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ... ananna.gif ALT=":banana"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :banana --><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ... ananna.gif ALT=":banana"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :banana --><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ... ananna.gif ALT=":banana"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><br>Freelance Bodyman<br><br>I be ridin the Cali Bay Area '88 & '89 FZR1K BOTH ARE ONLY HALF NAKED NOW!!!</p><i></i>

I just slid the ends of the resistor in the front signals - and +! That way it cools down when I take off.<br><br>Trippin out on lights was fun til you see it long enough<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :cheers --><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ...
