Are hyper flashing indicators illegal?
Is Hyper Flashing Illegal? The Department of Transportation requires all vehicles’ turn signals to flash at a maximum of 120 times per minute. These are legal and may be used as they’re not going to go past the 120 times/minute mark. However, you will annoy others on the road.
What does no hyper flash mean?
This happens because your new LED bulbs draw such little power that your turn signal relay sees the bulbs as being out. Hyperflashing is when the turn signals blink faster than your stock incandescent bulbs did.
Why does hyper flash occur?
How does hyper-flashing work? Standard bulbs (not LEDs) use electrical resistance to create light . When you turn a bulb on, the filament will generate that resistance, in turn creating heat and light. If a bulb is burned-out, your vehicle can tell that the resistance is low and will begin to hyper-flash.
What are the symptoms of a bad Flasher relay?
Another symptom of a faulty flasher relay is hazards or turn signal lights that stay on. If the flasher has any sort of internal short it may cause the hazards or signals to stay on when they are activated, instead of flashing.
Why does my car hyper flash when I Turn on the lights?
Standard bulbs (not LEDs) use electrical resistance to create light . When you turn a bulb on, the filament will generate that resistance, in turn creating heat and light. If a bulb is burned-out, your vehicle can tell that the resistance is low and will begin to hyper-flash.
Why does my tail light keep hyper flashing?
Although they don’t seem related to the tail lights, they can cause hyper-flashing if the overall resistance is too low. 2) You have an overly “sensitive” Jeep. While this condition is rare, it can still happen to some Jeeps. We first recommend going back to stock to see if there is hyper-flashing.
How does the VE-hicle fix hyper flashing?
The only downside with this fix is that some of the newer vehicles do not use a flasher relay to coordinate the LED corner lights, instead it uses the ve- hicle’s ECU (Electronic Control Unit). This brings us to our last solution to the hyper-flashing issue.

What to do when turn indicators don’t flash?
Turn Indicators on Dash Don’t Flash 1 First, check that your turn lights work properly. 2 If one of the signal lights doesn’t come on, check the bulb; check the bulb socket for corrosion or damage; check for a bad ground at the socket. 3 Check for an open in the circuit, between the light (s) that doesn’t work and the turn signal switch.
