led dome lights

Matthew Sermini said

so i was unable to find an led version of the 1004 at my local auto parts store, but i did find the 1157 leds which are the turn signals. i but them in and they dont turn on until the lights are on. but then they dont blink and stay fully lit. i've heard this can be a common problem but is there a solution?

You need an electronic flasher unit compatible with LED lights.
LED’s don’t have enough current draw to make the old style flasher work.
Also in your quest for lowering draw with LED lighting you will run across devices to cause a higher load and make a flasher unit work.
DO NOT USE THESE, as they cause more load and ruin the whole point of using LED’s

Just so you know, my entire car is LED lit except for the headlights.
Those are on relays with 10ga wiring and GE Nighthawk bulbs.
(Night and day difference)

Remember when you use a relay kit for your headlights, not only will you take that load off your cabin wiring, but off your headlight and dimmer switches.
