If thats a 2 prong relay it measures current to flash, you may have to put a load
resistor( 10 ohms 50 watts) to ground to simulate light bubs to work. Or check with your local auto store for a soild state flasher that will work with leds. |

that IS a LED flasher that's what we use it is a two prog flasher Yes but a semi has a lot more lights/LEDs running so you may still need to run a resistor? Most wiring issue's are a result of bad grounds or dirty power double check both but it seems you know what your talking about.. I had a Toyota Truck that had wiring issue's, lights always burning out, flashers working funky and I went with a ground kit with a power conditioner everyone always thought I had HID's as the head lights were super bright. The fans blew twice as fast, and better gas milage.... Thinking about it might get one for my teener.... |

the eletronic hd flashers that are used when towing trailers might work since they use a timer to flash and not a bimetal element to do the flashing.

Again these are TRUCKS not semi or traction engines, but your right this is a timer
