Tridon (a local Oz-based automotive aftermarket place) lists a *lot* of different LED flasher relays, and they all claim to be 'load sensitive' and have a 'failure alarm' which is something I've never come across before.
Flasher Relays - Electronic | Tridon
I want to replace all my external lights apart from headlights (for now) with LED's, and the stock relay will be no good since it's current-flow dependent to set the flash rate. I don't want to fit load-resistors as that defeats the purpose of switching to LED lamps for reduced current draw.
Is there a *genuine* relay that can replace the stock flasher relays? For my oz-market 3/92 80 the correct flasher is 81980-12070 and for 8/92 up it shows 81980-32010. I don't know if they are specific relays for Australia only.
I fitted some VW electronic flasher relays in Saab cars to replace std Hella ones some years back.
Ideally a flasher relay for LED lamps will use the same physical mounting and connection design as the std Toyota relay so it's plug-and-play.
