LED's, Resistors, Hazard Lights
If LED bulbs are installed in the turning signals without using resistors, - meaning a faster than normal blinking turn signal, how fast do the hazard lights blink when activated with this setup?
Thanks!

Uh, no actually. You'd think that it would hyperblink......Actually they will blink at the normal rate with hazzards on and no resistors.
How do I know this? Because when I did my switchbacks and did my resistors for the 1st time I tested them (like a dummy) with my hazzards. I found them blinking normal. I assumed that my car didn't need them for some reason. I put the bumper on and put the car back together and drove down the street. I was pissed! The signals were hyperflashing....but the hazzards were NOT! AAHHAHH! I lived with that for a couple weeks and pulled the bumper and redid it with the resistors. Hard lesson to learn. The hazzards use a different relay I guess.
Guys test your LEDs with resistors with your SIGNALS; and that means ignition on.
