Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have a 2001 GMC Yukon and recently replaced the rear brake lights/turn signal lights with new LED light fixtures and replaced the front running lights/turn signal lights with new LED light fixtures. Since the new LED lights use less current, the original electro-mechanical flasher started to flash very rapidly falsely indicating that a light bulb was burned out. To fix this issue, you can install this Tridon EP29 Electronic Flasher which will provide normal speed flashing with your new LED light fixtures.
The original flasher is on the back side of the fuse panel which is not easy to reach. To get to it you will need to remove the lower kick panel below the steering column by removing the two bottom screws. You can pull out the panel on the left side just far enough to reach the flasher. To confirm that it's the flasher just turn on your ignition and turn on the turn signal. You should be able to hear and feel the clicking sound and vibration on the flasher. Please note that there is a retaining clip on the side facing you that must be released prior to removing the flasher. Don't worry there is not a retaining clip on the other side... just the one facing you.
Remove the original 4-pronged flasher and install the new EP29 flasher. Replace the lower kick panel and you're done. I had searched the entire internet for these instructions and could not find them so I was compelled to share my experience. By the way, I posted an updated picture of the product which has reference to LED on the unit. I noticed that the photo on the product did not have it listed. Happy flashing !!
