LED/incandescent Turn Signal Mixing - mojoguzzi - 04-17-2023

Based on Grump's video recco, I upgraded my stock turn signal.  Love them...but lately I've gotten the dreaded "YOUR LEFT FRONT  TURN SIGNAL IS WHACKED!" message. Too, I note that only half the LEDs light. 

So, replacement. 

Q: Are there any issues in putting one of my old incandescent bulbs in while I wait to get new ones?

2: Any issues with a bulb having such issues within a year or so of installation?

iii. Anything I'm missing?

I do need to swap signal bulbs (left to right, for example) to ensure there's no other problem of course, but I'm going with Occam's razor right now.

Which LED signal replacements did you install! I've got a complete set of Weiser Technik LED conversion kit coming so I'm rather interested.

I installed Weiser LED's and soon half the lights in the left rear weren't working. I contacted Weiser and they sent me a new set, so now I have a spare. Great customer service.

Frank, thanks for the update/info. Glad to hear that. I'm looking forward to receiving the kit(s) and installing them.
