^^^ Performance Parts & Modifications

I guess I haven't heard of high performance switch backs...

You try to reinstall the stock bulbs to see if the turn signals function? If they do it's probably faulty LEDS which happens sometimes. I just had a issue with one of my switchback's that I ordered like 3 months ago that I'm sending back.

Yeah cuz the ones on my chrysler 300 performed and functioned just fine except when I would hit the brake pedal to brake or to shift out of park and what not it would go out and then come back on when I let off. Switched bulbs side to side and it still happened. So I figured out it wasn't a issue with the car. I'll know for sure when I get the new bulb next week.

Also did you install resistors?

Check your fuse. Happened to me while I was installing my rear LEDs. Does this sound familiar: when you try each side, they don't work, but when you try hazard flashers (both at the same time), they work? If so, I'm pretty sure it's your fuse. I installed my rears first (including resistor), and one of the LEDs was faulty, which blew my fuse. I installed my switchbacks about a week later, and there were no issues.
