MCCORNY11 Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 when the indicators flash quickly normally indicates a blown bulb. if you are sure all the bulbs are working then you have somehow effected the resistance and the relay thinks a bulb has blown. try taking the mod out on one side and see if it stops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
