Need some help. The great lighting debacle continues. ..In my 84 monte carlo, I've put in all new light sockets, all lights are now LED's. Put resistor's on front & back turn signal lights.(From what I've found it's recommended to put them on anything that blinks). Changed both flasher's/relay's under dash(fuse box). All lights come on, hazard's flash but my turn signal's do not blink !! ...I've tried just resistor's, just flasher's/relay's, different combinations and still my turn signals will not blink!! Anyone have any idea's?

Your issue has me baffled tbh. I have LED's in all my lights in my Cutlass...turns, brake, tails, courtesy, etc. The only thing I did was add the LED flashers with the ground wire.

Had other's tell me the same thing. I don't get it, been trying a month to figure it out. Turn signals all worked with old bulbs. Now i can;t get them to blink

Here's a simple idea: you got the wrong shizz.
The resistors are to simulate a bulb. The LED flashers have a load built in to simulate bulbs.
You have both. Think there could be a problem?
Try removing one, and see what happens.
You need to isolate marker lights because they pull ground through the turn signals.

I've tried JUST resistors and i've tried JUST flashers....all have the same result. ALL lights work, turn signals dont blink !
