<DIV>I currently have a mix of LED and incandescent bulbs in my side marker
lamps so my traditional flasher unit works fine with the current draw from the
halogen bulbs. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I prefer the appearance of the original flasher can in the engine
bay. I would like to increase the brightness of the bulb behind the green
lens in the dash but Moss warns against using an LED there. I am trying to
understand why. That bulb is fed from one wire from the flasher that
goes no where else other than to ground. I can’t figure out why an LED in
that position would not work since the other halogen bulbs provide sufficient
current draw for the flasher to work for the side marker or turn signal
lights. I can leave the existing halogen bulb there but I like to
understand why things work or don’t.</DIV>

<DIV>Thanks,</DIV>

here? I am using the original flasher.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
