so i just bought that resistor for my 2005 Yukon that you mentioned and i have no idea where it goes. Found the relay on the back of the fuse panel but like stated before it is huge and the on i got is a 4 pin. Is this still the same location that i put this flasher in? I hope so or im out 15 bucks!!! HELP PLEASE

Yeah...ya see on our trucks they are big, not like your normal one inch by one inch. What I ended up doing is the LOAD RESISTOR. I know your out $15, but here is what you will need unless you wanna try by-passing circutry and finding out what them 12 pins do on your factory flasher...

Yeah easy and simple... The resistor has two wires..one wire taps on to the positive of your pigtail and the other to the negative. When you get from superLED's they have detailed instructions with pics... Hope that helps.

Yeah It should work... Thats wierd though. I have an 04, almost identical to yours and every bulb in the front of my truck is LED. My DRL,my turnsignal and my 194 marker light and I have never had any fast flasher issues. I'm takin it you still have filiment bulbs mixed in with your LED switchbacks?

i have LED DRL, and LED Sitchback front turn signals, the marker bulb on the side is still a regular type bulb, could that be the issue? Should i try switching the way the the bulbs are installed in the turnsignals?

Ahhhhhhhh, Theres your prob. See the 194 in your signal lights is also a signal light for side viewing or when someone is next to you in your blind spot, You having the front facing bulb and LED and your sidemarker bulb still a filiment 194, Your computer is tell your truck that the bulb is burned out because of less resistance. Try a 194 LED in your marker and see what happens....It should work. I hope,or I just made a damn fool out of my self...:idiot:
