I know I know ANOTHER LED turn signal question
I installed LED turn signals without changing out the flasher and they stay on solid which I figured they would, so I have been driving around without signals for a day. I turned the signal on out of force of habit and they work! They don't flash at idle, but give it a tiny bit of gas (over 1500rpm) and they work. Could this be because my battery is weak? The lights are a bit dim until I give it a blip of the throttle.Tags: None

The fact that they blink when you hit the gas indicates to me that at idle the LEDs are not pulling enough draw to heat up the flasher.
Do you have a single turn indicator bulb or one for each side?

OK now they are all LEDS (turn signals only) and the left set will blink at normal speed but the rights stay solid when selected. Both remain off while not selected.

Im assuming that the side with the incandescent is the one that blinks.
Buy a electronic flasher and if should solve your problem. If not, you'll have to add resistors. Its quite simple.
