Default Re: '40 Ford LED Tail Lights

I wonder if the load equalizer is not just the extra load you need to make a regular signal flasher work as the leds do not have enough draw to make a standard flasher work.

Did you try to hook them up to a battery, directly to see if they worked? Just wondering, if it is the bulb, or the socket?

The load resistor, is only a turn signal issue, not a basic function issue.
