6 volt pos. Gr. Using incandescent in rear which are OK . Try I’d to use LED bulbs in added on front signal lites on bumper . Original bulbs worked but not bright enough . Is there a flasher that doesn’t require as much risistence to excite it . The LED bulbs did not work at all . This is 39 with new wire harness . 6v alt. Thanks for all info. Sunshine

Some LED's are designed to operate only with neg. gnd. If you attach wires and power the center rear contact and the base to gnd on your 6V battery they probably will work

Simple fix. Just add a load resistor to each circuit. Search on Amazon.
