Some FAQ's

Q: Will my blinkers blink faster if I install a Custom LED Integrated Tail or the Universal LED Flushmounts and remove my stock blinkers?

A: Yes

Q: Why do my blinkers blink fast when I remove my stock blinkers?

A: The stock flasher relays on our motorcycles - which are the devices that make blinkers "blink" - are designed to blink twice as fast as normal when a bulb is burned out. This is to let the operator know that there is a blinker bulb burned out. Unfortunately, most after market blinker products (including Custom LED products) consume so little power compared to the stock bulbs, that the flasher relay thinks that a bulb is out when this is not the case.

Q: How do I slow down the blinkers on my bike?

A: If you are NOT using a Custom LED Integrated Tail you have two options:
o
simply replace the flasher relay with one that is not designed with a "bulb out notification." The Custom LED Electronic LED Flasher Relay is perfect for this.
o
or you could install the Custom LED Load Equalizer Stage II.



If your you are using a Custom LED Integrated Tail you should:
o
simply replace the flasher relay with one that is not designed with a "bulb out notification." The Custom LED Electronic LED Flasher Relay is perfect for this.

Q: If I decide not to slow down the flash rate, will it harm my bike or its wiring in the long run?

A: No it will not harm the bike, and as a matter of fact, some people prefer the faster blink rate as it is more attention grabbing.

Q: I installed a Custom LED Integrated Tail and another manufacturers LED flushmounts and now my blinkers wont blink at all, what's wrong and how do I fix it?

A: If the amount of power consumed by the blinkers is too little, the stock flasher relay will fall below a threshold where it will no longer blink. To fix this problem, you must either replace the flasher relay with one that does not have a minimum load requirement and/or a bulb-out notification such as The Custom LED Electronic LED Flasher Relay. Or, if your bike does not have a replaceable flasher relay then you need to install the Custom LED Stage II Load Equalizer.

If you just want it to blink again (fast) the Custom LED Stage I Load Equalizer is a value packed solution! Please E-mail us for technical assistance.

Q: What is your standard shipping method?

A: The products that Custom LED sells directly from this website ship USPS Priority Mail which is 2-3 day mail. The shipping fees are automatically calculated on checkout and include a small handling fee and PayPal fee.

For products that are sold at McCoy MotorSports, please contact them directly about their shipping methods.

Q: What is a better way to correct the flash rate on my bike, the The Custom LED Electronic LED Flasher Relay or the Custom LED Stage II Load Equalizer?

A: The better way to correct the flash rate on any car or motorcycle is to replace the factory flasher relay with one that does not have a minimum load requirement and/or bulb-out notification. The Custom LED Electronic LED Flasher Relay is the best solution for motorcycles and cars with compatible flasher relays (see product page for compatibility note).

By replacing your flasher relay, you are taking advantage of the power saving aspects of the LEDs (or smaller lamps) you have installed. The Custom LED Electronic LED Flasher Relay corrects the bikes blink rate without wasting power, and for HALF the price of two pair of the Custom LED Stage II Load Equalizer!
