Looking for some quick practical advice.
I have replaced my front fender turn signal bulbs with led some time back (both front and side markers). I replaced the turn signal relay with Novita 470. I tried to replace the tail bulbs with Led but that didn't go well so I left the oem incandescent in there. Everything was working OK other than the turn signal indicators staying on the dashboard due to double front led bulbs.
Today I needed to wire in trailer lights. These are led units and I wired the trailer harness into the tail light harness with snap connectors. After I plugged the trailer lights in, they illuminated as designed, tail light, brake and blinkers but after just 2 flashes, the blinkers stopped working. I disconnected the trailer lights still no flashers at all and my brake lights are acting up; 3rd light doesn't light up then it does but the main brake lights dont, just random dysfunction.
1. Any ideas why the trailer led lights would cause an issue?
2. If I replace the relay and the issue comes back, what's the best course of action to bring back the turn signals, brake lights quickly. Planning a long drive tomorrow and don't want to drive without properly functioning lights.
Thanks in advance for any input.
