load resistor

hi guys,
how to connect the load resistors between the led flashmounts?
i noticed, i have 3 cable coming from the lights right know.
thanks for any help!

A better idea is to reduce the load on your electrical system and buy an LED flasher unit instead.

hi there,
what exacly does the LED flasher unit do? what is the difference to load resistors?

If you are running LED lights it negates the need for load resistors as it gives you the correct blink rate.

I have a set of Yamaha LEDs which came with pretty large load resistors.

To test them I put the hazard lights on and the indicators flashed once then died.

The load on the electrical system from the resistors was too much so I bought a dedicated LED flasher unit to replace the stock flasher unit and no such problems any more.

Here's one on Ebay:

Yea, a much better choice and it's plug-n-play so you're literally done in less that five minutes.

If I recall correctly it under the seat/pillion seat area.
