    make sure they all work. Blinkers usually blink fast to indicate that one has gone out. If one is out check the polarity, may need to reverse the polarity to get them all working.

    If you don't have any dead bulbs you'll probably need to install a resistor since the LED bulbs use so much less power that just the standard bulbs.
