What would be a model number, or how i could find like on EBAY an electronic relay for my turnsignals.

I am moving to the LED lighting, and it claims since i have a lower voltage bulb, i may have the "fast flash" situation

Let me know.

or.... is this all in the "lighting control module" that i just broke my back to find..... Who has experience with this? will the thermal relay work with the new LEDs?


because i tested the theory, by unplugging my rear light... and i began to get "fast flash"

Either wire in resistors or figure out how to wire in an electronic flasher. You can find them here: www.superbriteleds.com

I see the resistors, and their only a few bucks, but their isnt an electronic flasher fix? or is the relay all built into the "lighting control module" which almost seems like it should be electronic, but its not.

Te flasher is part of the LCM. There may be a mod to add a flasher to the LCM... check over on www.crownvic.net

eh... i found these resistor things... 2 for like 6 bucks.. ill try that first, before i start destorying my Lighting module...

For the turn signals you'll need:6 Ohm, 50 Watt resistor.

For the marker lights you'll need: 25 Ohm, 25 Watt resistor.

You'll need one per bulb. Just a warning... the resistors will get HOT!

you have them yourself?

Yes, installed them for the front turn signals.

I added 2 additional bulbs per tail light and added LEDs to those. Since there are already 2 incandescent bulbs in the circuit, no need for resistors.
