LED flasher relay module alternatives - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

ucsmfu · 01-23-2014, 04:26 PM

Just wondering if anyone has tried any alternative led flasher relay modules other than the Tap Turn ?

I am looking to fix that 1 seconds delay with my Tom's taillights and that cheap sound when the turn signal goes on.

I've looked into Vleds and diode dynamics, just want to see if anyone else has experienced something different with the LEd flash relay module. Just can't justify the price for the Tap turns.

does that OEM one solve the delay we're getting with the Tom's taillights ?

thanks

i dont have personal experience with the Tom's tails here, but I use them for my front LEDs and it solved my hyperflash issue. It's only $14 so maybe give it a shot?

What delay are you speaking of? I have the diode dynamics flasher mod and the first blink last like a whole second before continuing onto the second (which are quicker and completely normal from there on out). Only rear LED turns are currently installed, fronts used to be.

Yeah, that's the same problem with the ones that comes with the TOM'S tail lights.

Just poking around to see if there are any other alternatives, aside from the $80 strobepack TurnTap... (IMHO, that's way too expensive for what it is...)

This could very well be our cheaper alternative solution.

That's not an OEM Subaru part either, the one picture just shows that it replaces the OEM relay.

Interested in a solution, as my eBay flasher has the first flash delay as well.

My flasher relay I got from JWMotoring when I got my switchbacks has the same delay.
