LED turn signals

So I am new to posting on this site, but have used much of its wisdom in the past on many projects. I currently drive an 06 F-350 Lariat crew cab 8ft bed and I wanted to install LEDs for my turn signals. I went with the LED compatible flasher (LUYED brand with high reviews) so they do not blink fast instead of wiring resistors everywhere. After replacing each bulb I double checked that they worked before I reinstalled the housings and I had luck on my first 3 bulbs, all flashed just like the factory bulbs with the factory flasher. However when I put in my fourth and final LED none of my turn signals worked with the LED compatible flasher. If I put in the stock flasher they would all work and they would blink very fast, but they do not work with the LED compatible flasher. I don't get the arrows on the dash or even a clicking sound, but with 3 LEDs in that flasher would work. I was wondering if anyone else has run into this problem. This topic has probably been covered plenty of times but I could not find it in the search feature and was hoping someone could give me a quick answer. Is there something I'm missing? Is my flasher bad?

Thanks for the help.

I'm sure the issue is with the LED and not the flasher. What happens if you move that one LED to the other side, same issue?

I ran into a similar problem, put LEDS in 1st, that didn't work. Then read where you need the LED flasher unit, still didn't work. No one could tell me why, so I just went back to incandescents for the flashers. But, I did upgrade all the other exterior, interior (dome, reading), headlights and underhood lights. That was still fun!!
