 I am guessing that it is related to the fact that LED lights don't
draw much current.  Maybe they don't draw enough current to activate
the original flasher.  I think it depends on current to heat a
bimetallic strip.  A solid state flasher should not care.

>Can someone explain to me why Moss catalog says “ LEDs should not be used for turn signal indicators”  I have already replaced my gage lighting with LED, which work great but I don’t know why the turn  signal indicator green colored light can’t also be an LED.  It is simply an on-off light that should not be affected by the lower current draw.  What am I missing here?  I am using the original flasher.  Thanks,  Ron Fine 61Bn7
