Turn signal issue.

i am having the exct same problem. put the diodes in but the electronic flasher wont work. i dont understand why putting resistors in will make it work.

i dont understand why putting resistors in will make it work.

The flasher needs a certain amount of current flowing through it to operate properly. It does not care where that current goes after it leaves the flasher. The LED turn signals don't use nearly enough current to trigger the flasher, so another path for current to flow must be provided. The resistors are that path. They must be in parallel with the signals, not in series.
