LED turn light

I installed an LEd corner light 1157 similar to the OEM bulb but LED. I'm all wondering, when I put my park light on, everything works fine and the LED is working just fine. Turn on the hazard lights, same thing... but what's weird is that when I use my turn light to signal left or right, it won't work properly.

The signal light will blink fast like it's broken or something.

When it blinks rapidly that means that you need resistors of some sort. Too much power is getting through to the light, which leads to the fast blinking.

Thanks for the tip. I'll go ahead and try to put something, maybe talk to my electrician and see what we can do. Thanks for the advice.
