Re: projecter headlights help!
Did you put a relay on the angel eyes? Where did you power the angel eyes from? It the answer is daytime running lights or anything other then right to the battery there is your problem.Name: Brent

Re: projecter headlights help!
the fast blinker is because your flasher relay circuit is not seeing the proper load.
It is detecting a burn't out bulb and flashing fast.
If the new blinker bulb doesn't suck as much current (smaller wattage), it will flash fast. (check for burn't out rear bulbs also).
This problem comes up when using LED replacement bulbs also.
that question "blinker relays", that would cause the problem also if used.
a relay will suck about 0.03Amps or 0.4watts and the original bulb sucks about 2Amps or 25watts.put.......put.......

Re: projecter headlights help!
the fix, that I've heard of is putting a power resistor in parallel with the bulb.
or you can modify the flasher relay, but that's a little harderput.......put.......
