'75 Commando Mark III. I ordered LED turn signal bulbs and LED flasher from Classic British Spares and now have some weird things going on.
With all four led's in the turn signals I get all four signal light up dimly with either the left or right switch on. With all four incandescent bulbs in the signals work as they should.
Trying to troubleshoot, I removed the rear LEDs and put the original incandescent bulbs back in. Now the signals work correctly in both directions. I tried swapping that pattern front to rear with the same results. It seems like as soon as there are more than two LEDs in the circuit it causes problems. I bought the LED flasher...could it be a bad flasher or a polarity problem? I thought these LEDs were not polarity sensitive.
This really has me scratching my head...
