LED turn signals

[winreboot]

I just converted to LED turn signals, and they look great and the light is so much nicer. They is 19 LED's in each bulb. But after changing the bulbs to LED's my turn signals blink very fast. I think the relay is resistance sensitive and it thinks that the bulbs are burn out.

Did any one have this problem before? I know they are 3 and 2 prong relays with out any resistance restrictions but I think NSX have integrated relay unit that can't be changed? I don't know... Any help appriciated.

Thanks,
Dave

- or you can just tie a 6 ohm 50W resistor across each lamp and that will probably do it - not as elegant as my relay design solution though!

This looks awsome. I'll order the parts now. Thanks

Let me know if you need any further detail.

I'll take some pics at night. I just got another problem. I change the brake lights to LEDs too. Now in the instrument cluster I have worning light turn on red that the brake bulb is out. I think I will have to remove the guage cluster and remove the worning light bulb. I didn't fix the blinkers yet, still waiting for the relays

That one is easy - just ground the orange/white wire from the lamps

See this thread - http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showthread.php?t=53563&page=2 for discussion on that subject.

Per my tests of just replacing the 1157 with multi-led bulbs did not yield particularly good results.
