Changing indicators for LEDs - indicator relay location

[ocnav]

Only lights lefts to change to LED are the indicators. To fix the hyperflash issue either need to install resistors or replace the indicator relay with one which doesn't hyperflash. Not a fan of using resistors due to the heat, but I'm having trouble finding the existing relay. I know it's a little black box (should be black) and through my hunting around under the dash I can hear the ticking sound coming from either in the drivers side fuse box, or just behind it under the dash.

Anyone does this before?

That's your etacs box under the drivers dash.
Have you got the workshop manual? If not, search for workshop manual and look for username karj. In is sig he has links to download the manual.
Should help you alot easier to finding what you need.

you rippa. No I didn't have the workshop manual. Just downloaded it and having a look through. Doesn't look like the easiest document to navigate

[grelise]

No, it's not, but it's quite comprehensive. It's easier once you get use to it.

So no luck. It's as if the 380s don't have a flasher/indicator/turn-signal relay. I've spent hours going through the workshop manual. Eventually started control+F searching words like flasher, turn-signal, relay. Even in the diagnosis section, regarding troubleshooting the flasher timer goes as far as to recommend changing the entire ETACS. Anyway I'm stumped - made a quick vid about it https://youtu.be/5eSh27JUNNM
Going to search some more in US galant forums otherwise it looks like i'll have to use resistors. Thanks for the help though

Would you be able to supply a link to the 380 workshop manual?

Thanks.

look at grelise's comment earlier - just search workshop manual karj in the search section.

Anyway just found these - https://supernovalighting.com.au/sho...gaAro9EALw_wcB
Apparently they're LED indicator bulbs which don't need a resistor or relay upgrade. God knows how bright they'll be at night tho if they're still sucking the same power as incandescent bulbs. If i end up getting them I'll post back with a review.

I have found a link:

It is very large, 270MB.

I will try to do it overnight when I go to sleep and let it run by itself.

EDIT: It works.

I've posted it to the "sticky" "Encylopedia PS41-380" thread.
