I replaced almost all my bulbs with LEDs and an electronic flasher (to prevent hyperflash and errors) since I purchased my 10 Series in 2013. I finally changed the last two bulbs when I swapped out the factory side markers with JDM OEM clear side markers from FT86SpeedFactory (I used the bundled yellow LEDs).


Here's my problem:
When I have my headlights & parking lights off (just the OEM LED DRLs turned on) the clock and dual AC display flash whenever I use my turn indicators.


BUT when I have my parking or headlights turned on the clock and AC display does not flash when I use my turn signals.


I sent an email to FT86SpeedFactory last weekend but have not received a response. Could it be I need one of their $60 flashers or is this normal when you have OEM LED DRLs (ex. Monogram, Release series, BRZ, 86)?

I had pretty much the same issue when I upgraded to LED's on my 10 series. I ended up ditching the LED flasher relay, put the stock relay back in and put resistors on the front blinkers to fix the problem.

Hey guys #2483 finally checking in.
I see she hadn't been posted about before.
#2483 spent 54k miles down in Maryland, eventually picking up some extra parts before sadly being discarded. I now have her under good care in Northeast Ohio.

Assuming our 10Series were built in one batch will they be part of the recall?

I checked mine and it's not on the recall list.
That's a good thing because otherwise it is a fairly involved repair work that requires engine pull out.
Have you checked yours at https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls ?

I've checked several times and not on the list. Is the same true for you fellow 10 Series owners (I hope so)?

#974 checking in. Just ran my VIN# not to long ago and my 10 series did not pop up. Fingers crossed.
