If you're an enthusiast of modifications, you might know that installing aftermarket LED bulbs can sometimes result in hyper flash or even dashboard error messages. This issue is more common with aftermarket turn signals, tail lights, and brake lights.

The problem arises because aftermarket LED bulbs have lower power consumption compared to the original halogen bulbs. When the flasher relay detects a difference in resistance due to the different power consumption, it might mistakenly think the bulb is burned out and alert the driver through hyper flashing.

?Lasfit has collected feedback from users who have faced hyper flash, and here are some solutions they have used:

1. Completely abandon aftermarket LED bulbs and switch back to OEM halogen.

2. Use load resistors to prevent hyper flash.

3. Choose bulbs with a built-in decoder or opt for higher power bulbs when purchasing.

Have you tried any of the methods mentioned above, or do you have other tips to share?? Join the conversation and help fellow enthusiasts find the best solutions!

I went to your website and ordered the following
7443 7444 CANBUS Error Free Anti Hyper Flash Switchback LED Turn Signal Light Dual Color Blinker Bulb-Standard Socket.
I know in ForScan you can set for hyper flash by setting the option.
First, going to try these without setting in ForScan.
I had a previous set of Switchback they would hyper flash after a couple of minutes.
I'm going to test these by turning on the emergency flashers for a few minutes.

I know this is from a few months back, but did you ever end up trying this out? Any luck with preventing hyperflash?

Hi, that is a normal phenomenon for our T series LED bulbs, once the bulbs are used for a few minutes(2-5 Minutes), they will reach a high temperature and hyper flash, which is the safety feature to avoid our bulbs burning out quickly.
We now have the upgraded T3 series turn signals with an Upgraded Can-Bus Decoder System, which extends the decoding time. You won't have to worry about hyper-flashing after a few minutes of operation. Would you be interested in trying them out?
