I am replacing all my filament style bulbs with LED bulbs. Now the problem with the tail lights and front blinkers is that they won't flash due to the low current draw.

There are 2 ways to fix this problem:
1. Replace flasher canister with and electronic flasher.
2. Buy two 3-4 Ohm resistors rated for 20-50 watts each and attach them inline with the wires for the tail lights or front flashers.

I really don't care for the resistor fix. I would prefer the electronic flasher which is much easier even though more costly. Has anyone here done this conversion and which elecronic flasher is will work in a 1989 B2?

 

I'm out of electronic flashers !!!!!!!!!!
I'll be going to fetch one tomorrow for the work truck that has some LEDs in it. There's one standard bulb (provides resistance) that's just burned out & the flasing on that side is running at double time.

How does one go about replacing all their lights with LEDs, if one of you could fill me in please? Just curious...sounds like a good conversion.

 

Because the work truck is a "C" word and has a multifunction type flasher not the old style.

You can buy bulbs that contain LED's to replace 1156, 1157, 2057, 3157, 194, 168, etc. There's a LED equivalent for basically all automotive bulbs. You can find plenty of them on eBay (where I got mine from) or just Google the bulb number with LED added to find other sources. They also come with various numbers of LED's on each.

But you want to be careful though. Even though a LED bulb may be listed as super bright, it may not be right for your application. I have discovered that the tower LED bulbs (contains 30-31 LED's) will work best with my tail lights. Those types will spread the light out for the whole lens instead of concentrating it in one area.

Best thing to do is research to figure out which type is best for your application.
