honestly im just trying to get my posts up. just thought Id ask out of curiousity

I'll go easy on you Becasuse your Alex's friend and cool with him on instagram and stuff. But that's post whoring. I don't know if there is a "proper" way to make them blink fast since they're not supposed to. But yeah, don't know why you want to. Its super annoying to me.

When i see that on a car i think two things.
1.) Stupid ricer
2.) (If applicable) How do you not know you have a bulb out?

Throw some really cheap led bulbs in there and they'll hyper blink.

I guess thats true. My bad. I suppose I can just chime in but its a struggle man. Im really just trying to see the classifieds and get some input on my car from this website. Im just used to bimmerforums so it made me impatient. wont happen again though

that's a good question. How do you purposely get your lights to hyper blink? hmmmmm I guess you would need to play with your ICU on the fuse box.

Patience, you'll get there soon

gettin there man. thanks for the input, but i think Im going to leave them unmolested so that Ill be able to tell if the lights going out or not. Quashish brought up a good point about that. Im more into functionality than anything. Its gotta work right.

took me awhile

did you check out strobe lights kinda like the police cars use

[deevergote]

Fast blinkers are an indication that there is a problem in the system. When the front one goes out, the rear blinks faster (and vice versa.) If a cop sees a fast flashing signal, he's going to assume the other is blown, and could give you a ticket.

If you want faster signals, install LEDs. LEDs take significantly less power than halogen bulbs, and the system will read them as being "blown". You'll get fast flashing signals. Be advised, they will be all but invisible in daylight.

It's a warning I suppose when you have fast blinkers.

But I can see how much more effective they are night with jackasses all over the road.

Personally I think it's annoying as shit, especially if one side blinks faster than the other.

Many have had flasher delay relays to stop the fast blink when installing LEDs.

I guess it's a personal mod or ignorance to change a dead light bulb that only costs a few pennies.

Yeah I understand. I didnt really think about it that way. I really just want to leave them as is now. I'd just rather have it be fully functional than just blink fast. Thanks for the help though, guys.

you could make a module out of a 555 timer to replace the flasher and make it variable.

and then i found this:
