Hello all,

So I recently upgraded to LED bulbs in my Buick front and rear and figured I’d have to up the flasher too. I installed everything and the hazards work when the lights are off but not when they’re on. Also blinkers don’t work at all. Checked the fuse box and I only have connections to the hazard flasher but not the turn signal location? (With halogen bulbs turn signals worked fine) so I’m a little confused as to WTH is going on lol any input is appreciated

The LED doesn't put the electrical load on the curcuit like standard bulbs. With this the stock flasher fuses will either hyper flash or not flash at all. Two of these whould get things working again.

Oh ok yeah I have the led flasher but like I stated above on my fuse box I don’t have any connectors on the turn signal flasher spot, what’s weird is that before I did anything with the bulbs or flasher they worked fine

Don't know why they did it but GM didn't always put both fuses in their spot in the fuse box. The "missing" fuse should be in a PIA spot behind the dash then. It could be in a metal clamp bolted to the dash itself or part of the harness that houses the key & seat belt buzzers & horn relay. That should be bolted to dash near the parking brake release.
