Test your indicators for each resistor you fit to ensure that they are working correctly and to determine if any more are needed to further slow down the flash rate.

Some people choose to fit load resistors to imitate the load of the incandescent (standard) bulbs that they have just removed. This results in more wiring, things may get hot and you are probably using more power than the standard bulb set up that you just replaced! Installing an LED flasher relay is the easiest way to solve the problem. There are many flasher relays available that look the same as this one, and are described as ‘led compatible’ which will not work unless the current draw is around 0.5A. This is less than the 3.5A that a pair of 21W bulbs requires, but still way more than many led equivalents. This relay works with a current of 0.02A so it will still flash even with the tiniest of connected loads, including any led combination. If your indicator relay fails it would otherwise be necessary to replace the whole regulator/ indicator relay unit. a) install resistors (extra solder joints, bulky, generate heat, waste power, weigh a little bit, look fugly) LED motorcycle indicators have a lot of benefits over the OE option, being smaller & lighter units, which allows the designs to be a lot more sharp and modern, plus giving a much brighter flash out on the road.Resistors get hot during operation, so wrapping them in tape can lead to resistor over heating or worse melting plastic parts around it.

LED Flasher Unit Relay MKII - Just Add Lightness
We need to extend this wire and fix a spade connector onto the end. Similarly we need to splice into one of the red/white wires and connect in another wire with another spade connector as in the picture below... This relay and it replaces the standard relay when you upgrade to LED lights. It corrects the indicators flashing too fast without the need to use a load resistors. This relay has been tested on Caterham’s with the Just Add Lightness LED lights. Why do I need this? Plug and play, even for a Caterham novice I got my indicators working immediately, and it’s future proof for the (inevitable) upgrades to LED lamps. A great price, and very fast delivery from a company dedicated to Caterham. A big thumbs up from me, thank you! So you've finally decided to swap out those bulky OE indicators for some sleek new LED units; maybe because you want something brighter to keep you safe out on the road, or you want to make your bike look its age and not older. PLEASE NOTE: We have seen many fake LED relays on the market. They look the same but have different components inside and the casing is made from an inferior plastic. We have even tested some where the positive and negative terminals were incorrectly labelled. Please ensure you have a suitable LED relay fitted to your Caterham when upgrading to any type of LED light.Most Piaggio/ Gilera mopeds are fitted with an indicator relay which is built into the voltage regulator unit.
