There are going to be two flashers, one for the signals and one for the hazard lights (even though the lights are the same ones). I think Thumper's manual is going to say that both of them are on the fusebox. DelCity #73970 or #73975, they just plug in.

I'd think you will need an LED flasher as it's a load resistance thing.  Don't quote me on that, but I've run across a few people that had this issue while swapping to LED's (but I'm not 100% sure what they did to fix it).  Maybe someone else can chime in for 2nd opinion?  As for the location, check here...

LED's?
« Reply #1 on: September 28, 2017, 02:26:09 PM »
I recently purchased a Fiero based, IFG Diablo, and I'm replacing the lights with LED's. I did the rear brake & tail lights first, with no problems.
When I replaced the front turn signal/parking lights with the 1157 equivalent in LED's, the turn signals don't work anymore, front, or back.
When I put the incandescents back in the front, everything works fine again.
I'm guessing I need to use a different LED compatible flasher or something? I've tried to figure out where the flasher is, but it's darn near silent & can't find it?
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
