Which relay?
I have LED indicators all round, ie 3 pairs.
I also have the CBS LED flasher relay, however my indicators still don't flash! (Just stay on constantly)
Where can I get an appropriate relay? Or any other suggestions?
Thanks
James

do your hazards work?? Were your indicators working previously using filament bulbs at all? Are you sure the flasher relay and indicator relay are
wired up correctly??
I have always wired from scratch and take a permanent live in to the flasher relay. Two feeds out - one to hazard switch, and one to the indicator
switch via a standard 4-blade relay so there's only indicators with ign on.

I have never had filament bulbs so I can't say really.
I did have a standard relay, that just makes the indicators go slightly more dim.
The wiring loom actually came from mnr and was fitted by them whilst my chassis was getting modified to take the r1.

It sounds like you are getting a live feed from elsewhere than the relay to me to be honest. Worthwhile getting the multimeter out and working through
the indicator / hazard circuit.
Do the indicators go off if you pull the relay out btw??

That's a good point, I haven't tried pulling the relay out yet either.
I have already had troubles with the wiring, its starting to get a bit annoying!

You may find the connections on the LED relay are not the same as a standard flasher relay also so worth a check. I had to swap a couple of connectors
around in the relay block last time i did a conversion to LED lights.
I'd say start by getting the hazards working with the indicator relay pulled out which will isolate that circuit - it certainly helps simplify
trouble-shooting just working with one circuit rather than two. Hopefully working through with the meter will soon isolate the issue.

As soon as I get back home I will try what you suggested, thanks for your help!
