*help* Turn signals occasionally blink fast when accelerating or braking

Having a slight issue with my new ft86sf headlights will from time to time blink quickly. It doesn’t happen all the time and it’s usually only after 5-10 minutes of driving but still annoying. Turning the car off and back on does fix it temporarily. Would this be an issue with the ballast (the black box that’s connected by 2 wires to the headlights) or would something like an led hyperblink module fix this because switching to LED’s use less power and accelerating is giving it too much.

Is it the turn signals or headlights that are acting up?

What is the last lighting thing on the car that you messed with? Start there.

I'd suggest you look for a lose wire or connector.
