My 82, I've kept it in the garage all these years, has only 49k miles, and still, every time I go to fix something, the part next to it breaks. But, it is just fun fixing and updating her. Great video. Will look you up and sub. I hope you are still making videos.

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Very nice and ya I know what you mean haha. I do indeed still make videos. I'll be releasing a couple more camaro videos probably next month

[@jockofthebushveld299]

Excellent Video including Part Numbers and potential problems that may be encountered, well explained 👏

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Thank you I appreciate and glad you enjoyed.

[@PureMassacre7]

Im doing this to an 89 trans am. this is the most informative video I have found. thank you

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Thank you I appreciate it and glad you found it helpful.

[@bigkev10101]

Thanks for putting the video up. I am doing the same to my 1992.

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@georgeferrer23]

thanks for this informative video. I'm doing the same thing to my 1986 Camaro iroc z. I want to make it stand out a little more.

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Very nice. Thanks for watching

[@JimmyMakingitwork]

Adding a resistor helps also, 6 ohm / 50 watt I think is correct for most cars to simulate a bulbs resistance and load the flasher correctly.

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Ya when dealing with older vehicles most won't require it you could just do the Flashers or just the resistors but the Flashers are definitely an easier upgrade but as you get into newer vehicles where they may not use load Flashers the resistors are definitely the easier route to go all depending on the vehicle.

[@OrignalRobRobert]

Thank you

[@superchile9640]

Doing the same to my 89. I only bought one flasher so I'm curious to see the video.

[@JB-yc5gc]

Great video. I installed the same LED flasher and the signal brake light work, but for some reason, the parking lights stopped working. Any ideas of what it could be?

[@upsidedowndog1256]

Great video. That was a dumb place for GM to mount those. I guess you are used to that kind of thing by now! Can't wait to see it run.

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Haha ya engineers love putting things in stupid places 🤣👍

[@vickikgibson9470]

@@TonyTheTechnician Well at least the fuses and computer components are NOT in the engine bay! That has been the stupidest thing I have seen. Everyone knows computers hate heat, and fuses, condensation, but where did they put those...?! Anyway, love my Camaro, and I don't mind the fuse box where it is so long as I can find where to put things. LOL But, it does give you a workout! Thanks Tony for the help as always!:)

[@davidwalle5025]

Good,video. You can have similar problems with trailer lights.

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Thank you

[@vandettabuilds6641]

I had no idea and I just bought led blinkers

[@TheSirChicken]

Any recommendations for doing this exact same thing for a 4th Gen. F-Body?

[@netzoned]

My car is a pain to do! I have to get the LCM out because the flasher is in the LCM, de-pin 2 wires in the flasher, hook everything up, install and reinstall. Ugh! Yep, I have not done it yet. :-p _The main thing is, finding LEDs that do not overheat, because even with the relay if they overheat in about 5 minutes, less in hot weather, they will hyperflash, anyway._ That is no good for the hazard lights. If actually needed, the time used is (probably) always over 5 minutes.

[@kinglindsey6911]

Ive replaced all lights with Led bulbs in my gauge lights now they barley glow or light up any. Now i did replace brake,reverse,license plate light all with high powered LEDS. Now the blinkers and reverse doesnt work as should when it worked just fine before. Could the Flashers help with the gauge light as well???? 1984 Trans Am

[@ARELLANOFAM909]

I bought the vented switch back turn signals from starbuck and they turn on but no flashing !!! Do I need the reverse plate ? I put flasher on both spots but looks like someone been requiring

[@techfordummies6801]

can I used these n an 88 Monte Carlo? I seen some on an gbody website with a part number ef-32rl that our cheaper any info will help

[@gregsmith5065]

Now that I’ve updated to LED’s my signal lights on my dash are glowing when the lights are on? Any ideas?

[@georgeferlazzo7936]

Hello again Tony Thank you for another Great Video. Is this available for all vehicles? I have a 2001 Nissan Frontier pickup that was my inheritance from my Father. The headlights barely let you see anything. I would like to change it out. The part issues has stopped me thus far. I can't seem to find good information. Even the dealership has not been a lot of help. Again thank you

[@TonyTheTechnician]

If you are just upgrading the headlights then you Most likely won't have to make any changes other than finding the correct bulb type and getting the LED version of it 👍

[@georgeferlazzo7936]

@@TonyTheTechnician Hello again Tony Thank you, I will let you know how it goes. Does anything pop up for cleaning foggy light lens. Again thank you

[@TonyTheTechnician]

I use chemical guys headlight restore to clean up foggy lights. You can get many different headlight restore kits at Walmart that would really help 👍

[@andrewbanuelos7473]

I added 2 LED flashers in my 86. Installed LED front signals from SuperBrightLEDs. Now when I install the led rear turn signals, there is no flashing. When I place incandescent back in, it flashes fine. 🤷‍♂️

[@TonyTheTechnician]

If you have already done both Flashers then you may want to start looking at the wiring. I.e. grounds

[@vickikgibson9470]

OK buddy, I'm not changing over to LED... it's just a lot to do for me, and I just want to find where the flasher module is located so I can change the flasher and put in a new one. Mine is very old and blinking very slowly now. My car is a sports coup, so I can't always follow the Z models to fix things. Does my car need 2 flashers replaced too? I was only given one when I went in for the parts. No computer in my car!LOL lucky me, the 85 coup did not have one. Cheers and thank you as always!

[@TonyTheTechnician]

They have 3 Flashers but one is tucked up further in the dash and is for the 4 way Flashers so I'm sure that one is fine. You should find it under the dash between the steering column and the center console area. Hope this helps

[@vickikgibson9470]

@@TonyTheTechnician Do I have to replace both to get better results? And do they look the same? Mine came as a 3 point clear one for replacement.

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Ya a majority of the time they look the exact same depends on if they have been swapped before. I don't think you need to worry about the top one. I would just start with the main flasher. Keep in mind yours might be like a black plastic or a silver metal one right now

[@NJRangerGeorge]

If the flasher wire is connected to the wrong wire will it also stay lit? I changed the flasher moduel both and also they are grounded

[@TonyTheTechnician]

You may want to check your wiring for the lights, make sure it has no shorts or faulty grounds or corrosion

[@frankkjllefjord446]

are they both flasher relay or are the one on the cable the hazard one?

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Yes one is for the turn signals and one is for the 4 way Flashers

[@kenschneider2982]

Hey Tony I Did the Exact same lights and flashers as you did and i am having a problem with the front blinkers not blinking when the car is running with the light switch on.. But the rear ones are working....The fronts work with car running and the light switch off...Talked to Lasfit and they said it may be the turn signal relay? Any Ideas...thanks

[@TonyTheTechnician]

If you replaced both Flashers and it's doing that I would check the grounds for those lights. Let me know if that works

[@kenschneider2982]

@@TonyTheTechnician the funny thing is i found a LED bulb i had 5 years ago and tried it and had no problems worked fine...would it be the relay like the technician said from Lasfit ?

[@TonyTheTechnician]

The third gens don't have a turn signal relay just the Flashers.

[@trudad03]

So I have the same flashers from screaming chicken and looks like the same led bulbs but for the front park lights and signal and I can't them to work properly far as blinking is it because I haven't installed the rear lights with leds

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Yes most likely it is picking up the rear bulbs missing or you may want to check your grounds on the front bulb wiring

[@trudad03]

Ok..thanks I'm watching your other video now about the bulbs.so I'm just put that part on pause till I get the rear led bulbs.i have both flashers and I still need to install front headlight bulbs

[@GlassSandwichTV]

Is the hazard flasher necessary as well for the turn signals to work? I just installed this exact part with the ground wire and everything and it doesn't work. I tried both polarities

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Yes sometimes both are necessary but before doing that if I were you I would check all the ground wires for your lights. It's a common issue

[@GlassSandwichTV]

@@TonyTheTechnician I now have both the turn signal and the hazard flashers replaced with the ones in the video. All of my lights flash except for one, the back right. I'm going to switch it with the left bulb to see if its the bulb causing the issue or not.

[@TonyTheTechnician]

@@GlassSandwichTV I'm glad you are figuring it out. If it's still the same light then check the ground.

[@Thirdgen83]

I want to run LED up front and incandescent in the rear. What flasher would I need for that?

[@TonyTheTechnician]

This one would work. Just when you go to order them make sure it says it works with both incandescent and led bulbs

[@JimmyMakingitwork]

The blinkers might blink a little faster, but having incandescent on the same circuit should keep them working. It won’t harm anything to try it and see how it works. There are also resistors you can add to LED’s to load the flasher and keep it working normally if needed instead of an LED flasher.

[@TonyTheTechnician]

@@JimmyMakingitwork very true great point. Incandescent bulbs have more of a strobe affect due to the bulb cooling down then heating up where the LED bulb is instant on and off. 👍👍👍

[@daddylion5082]

Are there always two? I can only see the first one There isn’t another one hanging down or anywhere visible

[@TonyTheTechnician]

The other one is usually mounted up above the other may have to move some things to see it. You should see a panel that moves that it mounts to possibly

[@timweb1510]

I need to try and work on mine man 🙁

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Indeed 👍

[@Talachasdiaz-bn5fd]

Parts numbers please

[@Juice9zero]

Hey tony, I installed these same flashers, and I have something odd, so the front turning lamps I have the led that are white but when you turn on the turn signal they flash amber, so the right passenger turning lamp does exactly what I want it to it runs white and flashes in amber however the drivers side stays amber and flashes amber. Any ideas? And I switch the led lights because I was thinking maybe it’s the led light itself but it does the same on both led lights, the driver side stays amber, any ideas as to why?

[@TonyTheTechnician]

Hmm that is awkward I was going to say the bulb but you said you have already tried switching. I would check the wiring on the one side. Most common issue is the ground wire

[@Juice9zero]

@@TonyTheTechnician you think replacing the socket ?

[@TonyTheTechnician]

You could try cleaning the points on the connector first

[@TerrionCarter]

I don't have the one that hangs down

[@TerrionCarter]

Nvm, mine was mounted to a bracket just above the wiring

[@TonyTheTechnician]

I was just going to say sometimes they are mounted up higher. Glad you found it
