As I said before. the incandescent bulbs provide a ballast, extra resistance on the circuit, that stops the bleed through the trafficator indicator to the other bulbs. Extra bonus, the front bulbs may light more brightly since they can draw more - mine did.</div>

<p><span style="font-size:11pt;">This makes no sense to me. Apparently in the last few weeks I replaced the front bulbs with LEDs. The rear already had them.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;">Replacing the front bulbs with analog bulbs fixed the problem, and, as a bonus, the green trafficator light is now working. I haven’t seen that for years.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;">Now the blinkers work as they should.
