TOM's tailligths problem - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

i actually don't mind the one-second that the blinker stays on for the first blink for my Tom's tails. if anything, it's more unusual and probably catches people's attention better.

Anybody have an issue where the right blinker stays on when you start the car? When it stays on, it won't let me disable it unless I turn off my car and lock & unlock my car. It happens every time I drive now. And it doesn't even blink, it just stays lit up. I'm thinking it's an issue with the relay and not the lights.

Same thing happened to me today. Luckily I had another relay lying around that works with LEDs

Might be a good excuse for me to buy a TapTurn if that's the case lol. But I'm hoping to get more feedback.

FWIW, my relay that did this was the Diode Dynamics one I got. The one that fixed this issue was the one supplied by Tom's. I wonder how long this relay will last....

the delay bothered me at first now after months I don't even notice it anymore. I wouldn't waste my money on a new relay.
