Re: Help- both turn signal indicators turn on when lights are on

I understand completely well about the differences in voltage between LEDs and incandescent. This is not my problem however, I can live with a hyper flashing. My problem is something is drawing excessive current and draining my battery, and my alternator is not able to compensate for this battery drain. Load resistors essentially negate any voltage drop benefit you may have achieved from using just LEDs alone. Not to mention that load resistors get hot and can harm other components that may be near the load resistor. Not to mention, more wires to cut and more opportunity for electrical errors in the future.

I have a ground issue, or power short somewhere in my system and was hoping anybody had suggestions on where I should be looking for this issuE or any way to troubleshoot my harness to find the culprit.
