installed LED flashers in rear, no problem. Installed LED flashers in front and right flasher settled in, left flasher had a problem. With lights "off" left flasher will flash but so does the display lighting and the radio lighting. With lights in the "on" position left arrow appears on display, does not flash. I have changed the flasher relay, GM11516051with newer relay designed to work with LED's. Did not fix the problem.

Hey LACajun,

One of two things is happening, either you got the wires mixed up or the resistance in the LED kit will not work with the BCM of the vehicle.

I would recheck the wires and then if that does work put back the stock lights to see if that works.

Please let us know happens so it will help others.

Best, Ken
