"Grote" makes a 5 terminal electronic led flasher that prevents hyper- flash when led bulbs are used for turn signals. Part number is 44090. This is for 2-6 lamps, up to 16.2 amps. NAPA and Amazon price is about $27.

This sounded easier and less hassle than adding resisters to each circuit.

Most States have laws that govern the turn signal flash rate and this unit solved my problem.

Go to your local autoparts store and get a replacement flasher, LED model, they are about $7-12 and are direct replacement size (3 pin)...

My 98 Ranger uses the 5 pin flasher. It is a combo and does the turn signals and the hazard lights. Guess it depends on the year of the truck for the proper flasher.

Mine uses the same 5 pin, but I just used the 3 pin led flasher, my turn signals work (without the key on) but my hazards don't. I need to split the ground wire and wire up two LED flashers, but since I have "other" flashers, I didn't worry about it to much....
