I have an 05 rubicon with poison spyder rear led lights. when i used the turn signals they used to blink real fast but they would work. i recently put on tube fenders and genright led front turn signals they stopped working and make this terrible errrrrr noise what do i need to do?

Gotta replace the turn signal fuse with one designed for LEDs.

Ordered mine from Mark Lochridge @ Gold Coast Distributing. Click Here

Works great.

Worst case scenario: y ou wreck it and have to buy one anyway.

I've never had that problem with mine and i have LED's on all four corners. They just blink fast, and i can live with that.

I tried Stu's mod when I just had the tail-lights. Worked great. Now that I have installed the front LED's, same thing. No turn signal, no flashers. I have a relay from GCD on the way, we will see what happens....

That'll fix it. There's just not enough load on the current flasher to make it work.
