2015 LEDs Fast Flashing

Hi all, I did search but have gotten different responses from people at the dealership, hoping someone here can point me in the right direction. I just put LED on the front and rear turn signals. I am getting the dreaded fast flashing when my lights are on. I was under the impression that the dealership could hook up to my ecm and reprogram it for the LEDs. I called the Ford dealer on Thursday and they said I needed resistors, which would deceive the purpose of the LEDs since the resistors get really hot. Any and help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
MALO

Get yourself the OBDLINK MX+ adapter, download Forscan and shut off the bulb out indicator (aka hyperflash). You'll find many threads on doing just this here and on other Ford forums.

I use OBDLink EX FORScan OBD Adapter vint-tt55502 EX (I bought from Amazon) with my laptop.

The MX+ is a wireless adapter and the EX is a USB connection.

Install Forscan on the laptop and it works great.
