    I recently put LED turn signals in. And the old flasher just stayed on when the turn signal was used. Well I got a EP35 LED flasher. Now I get no turn signal at all. Then I put the old one in and still nothing. Anyone with similar issues??

    Welcome to the forum!!

    Did you install lights or just bulbs?

    Led`s have a polarity bulbs might be installed wrong .

    Where did you purchase The new EP35 flasher ??

    It might have failed out of the box.

    Did you cause the fuse to open?

    My EP 35 was bought at NAPA everything works fine.

    Oh, then have the OP press the HAZARDS after replacing the LED flasher relay. It was mentioned in the YouTube video that the turn signals won't work until things are 'reset' by pressing the Hazard button first. Give it a try and let us know. I changed mine, pressed the Hazards, then tested my LED turn signals and they worked as expected.

    Interesting I never had to do that .

    Swapped relays I was good to go .

    Then my Truck is wired different to allow the turn signals to function with the hazard lights flashing.

    Far to dangerous to change lanes with no turn signals!

    Agreed... I never would have thought that running the Hazards were a way of resetting/re-initializing the flasher relay in my 2003 taco. I didn't try my LED turn signals before pressing the Hazard, so I couldn't tell you if this was a necessary step or not, but the guy in the video ran into a similar issue (no turns), so I just did the step blindly. Hope it works for @Thegiantmidget88 .
