I just installed some new bright white led parking lights and they look awesome. The only problem is that on my dash, the turn signals are constantly lit up and never goes away. If I use the turn signal to turn, the signals blink as usual, when i cut them off, they stay lit up. Does anyone know whats goin on or how to fix? (Note *I am talkin about the turn signals on my DASH, not the actual blinking bulbs*)

Had the same problem with my 98. You didn't mention if they blink faster or not but for the record mine did. The reason your blinker lights stay lit up on your dash is because these vehicles have burn out bulb indicators. Your new LED lights use less wattage and have a lot less resistance than factory bulbs so your vehicle thinks the bulb is burned out. Look on Ebay and search for (LED FIX). You will find some resistors to put in line with the power wire for your turn signal bulb. No more that $10. That should fix your problem and everything should act normal.

Awesome, im glad that its an easy fix, I just ordered some of the led fixers you suggested but do you have any advice on installing them? Im not too good with electical.

By the way, which kinda turn signals did you get? I got some white ones with a bluish tint that go good with my silverstars.
