    LED trailer indicator lights pulsing

    Hi Forumites,
    I fitted LED lights to my camper trailer, all the lights work except the indicator laps flash / pulse as soon as I connect the trailer plug to the vehicle. I see people mention repeater flashers to make the lights work properly, also people talk about diodes and or shunts, where do you fit these the trailer or the vehicle, and where do you fit them, in the wire?
    If this all becomes to hard I'll just put the old "normal" lights back on again, is this an easy fix?
    Any constructive comments welcome.

    they generally wind up wired up on the trailer. I personally would wire up a dummy harness like a pin converter that you get when you hire a trailer and keep that in the car just incase you wind up using someone elses trailer with led lights who doesnt have a car with the fancy electronics as a tow motor.

    looking at it thats the same thing I've fitted for a couple of blokes in the past.

    if you get that buy some decent plastic cased rare earth magnets and glue them to the back of the case so you can keep it portable.

    Hi Guys,
    Yeap, when I saw the email address on the bottom when I read the ad for the second time I sent an email off to David (Owl), I'll just wait to hear back from him now. Forum to the recue again. I was just about ready to take them off and fit the old ones back. A guy told me many years ago "that for every accessory you fit you need three more to make it (what ever "it" is) work", how true that was, the second accessory was the brackets I had to make to hold the lights in position on the trailer..........!
