Blinkers blinking fast
Yesterday I replaced the original red tail light with the amazing dark tail light that OEM/GM made. They look real nice but after installing the new tail lamps, the blinkers are now blinking twice as fast.
I posted a video of the issue that I am having. The blinkers would start blinking normally, then it eventually starts blinking faster. If you guys can help me out and tell me what I need to do, please let me know. Thanks! |

I believe your orig lights were halogen and new ones LED? Without resistors, fast blink can occur.

I have the Dark tail lights, and they do not do that.

Hi artsy28!,
ask http://www.gen5diy.com/ for the right harness. Your old bulbs were NOT LED, the new ones are.. so they need some resistors or a ready-to-go harness, such as the one Gen5DIY.com provides. See you!!, Eos |

I recently ordered the GM smoked tails for my 18' 1ss 1le. Should I expect to have this issue?

I'm having the same problem. I did the darkened taillamps and third brake lamp swap on my '17 1ss. The passenger side lamp blinks 3 times, then goes into hyper mode. Anyone have a fix for this?
On my way to a hockey game and noticed that the passenger blinker is now working properly.
