I added an LED light strip with sequential LED turn signals to the gap between the hood and the grill/headlights. It's one of those inexpensive stick-on light strips with turn signals built in. The white LED DRL strip definitely adds to front-end visibility, and the sequential turn signals are nice & bright, but the turn signals will only work correctly with the engine off (ignition on). When the engine is running only the first few LEDs in the sequence will briefly flicker while the OEM bulbs are working fine. The LEDs are wired in parallel with the stocks at the the Molex connector, no "hot-taps". I've read (somewhere) that the voltage to the signals could be either higher or lower than 12v when the engine is running and that might be enough to glitch the LED controller. I will be checking voltages to the signals tomorrow with engine on and off.
Any thoughts?
