I swear these kids today don't even know the difference between a LED and a tungsten filament bulb. The LED bulb had remarkably less resistance and therefore is causing your relay which is probably electric and relays on a capacitive circuit to work is now charging and discharging faster. You need to add some series resistance, or just ditch the damn led signals and use a regular bulb.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA


in non car guy terms..........the little lightbulb you bought(led) uses a whole lot less elcktrickty(electricity) than the normal bulb(filament) causing the light to blink faster.....just change both lights to led's and you will be fine

synthetic blinker fluid i would assume. that goes directly into the flux capacitor
where many hate, few will love,
But for those who love,
they'll see what it's like to live.
