So I have V-LEDs switchback LEDs and 50w 6 ohm resistors in for my turn signals. They don't hyperflash but I noticed that when they flash, they only flash amber. I was under the impression that they were supposed to alternate between the two colors, white and amber. Also, when I unlock the car at night and the lights come on to the white, one lights up first and then the second one lights up about a half to one second later. If anyone has any help with these issues I would appreciate it. If you need me to post a video showing the delay or the turning signal I can try to do that when I get a moment. TIA

My switchbacks do the same thing minus the delay part. I believe there are some switchback bulbs that can flash from amber and white and some only flash amber.

Yup, I have this issue. I talked to the guys a VLeds.com and they said our Yukons dont support switchback style lights, and trying to wire them to do so will burn out the circuit board on the LEDs.. So just like you, Im stuck with $60 turn signal bulbs...
