led brake lights rapid flash

[leopardpig]

I added a pair of LED brake light to my 05. When The keys on and the bike not running there fine.

When the bike is running they flash so fast it looks continiuous.

Any suggestions??

You add a controller for the leds?

I just tapped into the brake light wire under the seat

I don't think it's that simple. I'm running 3 additional leds and won't flash correctly without a controller.

Hopefully one of the resident electrologist

will be along shortly to explain it. Something to do with ohms

apples and oranges I think. Might have been better to posted this in the technical discussions.

You need a LED flasher, you just replace the OEM flasher in front.
