MATER MOMENTUS MORI
I came home from a ride yesterday night and noticed my license plate light was flashing. I changed it to an LED instead of the regular incandescent bulb a few months ago. I haven't had any issue until yesterday. I tore into today, when I insert the key and fire up the power (not the engine) the light flashes. My brake and turn signals are functioning fine. I can hear a clicking, it sounds like a flasher relay with the rest of the electrical parts. I checked on my wires and the connections were good, I checked the light with an alternate power source, the light is ok.
Has this happened to anyone else? Everything else works great, no issues. Can anyone diagnose what the next step should be? I didn't put a resister on the LED taillight because as I understand it, the resistors were only used to correct the flash rate, the license plate stays on. I am baffled. Thanks in advance.
