    Hi there
    Trying to fit fading LED indicators on my 2019 scrambler 1200 XE
    They flash once then stop and a warning on the dash comes up
    Can anyone help with this

    Have you changed the relay, the original doesnt work with LED. Also I believe that unlike standard indicators where you can connect the wires either way, LED need to be connected pos to pos and neg to neg.

    Yes LED is polarity sensitive.

    I doubt you are going to be able to make this work. If you have an indicator for this system on the dash, I believe it is a can-buss type of system. I don't think this is compatible with LED indicators. Someone correct me if I am wrong. ...J.D.

    On the Street Scrambler the ECU can set to accept LED indicators but I've no idea if this applies to other models.....


    Some load resistors to make the ECU "think" normal bulbs are installed or CANBUS specific LED bulbs should work although some CANBUS systems can cause LED's to flicker.
