LED Indicators

I have read existing threads re: LED Indicators. But before I spend money, just to confirm, is it OK, for SVA purposes, to fit LED Indicators all round provided they are in the correct position, flash at the right rate and the lens are"E" marked.

Yes, it's fine to fit LED indicators. My car passed its SVA test last month with a set on.

Dont forget you will need a led resistor in each line.

I thought most relays were digital in that they are either on or off!

You have to be a bit careful with the load. Some digital relays are 10W which for an Indicator Relay may be JUST enough. Our Indicators are 2W rear. If you have 2W front and 1W side that's x2 for the Hazards and you have the full load.

Just make sure you buy compatible products. Or just buy a 20W Digital Relay to be sure.
