L.E.D eletrical short??? Need help on diagnosis ~
Installed all exterior bulbs with L.E.D's figuring it would lessen the electrical load on the car/ thus reducing idle. Anyways all of them work except the two rear sidemarkers and one plate light. Also my blinker is on CRACKKK now. Literally it's faster then a JDM winker tune. Any idea's?
Btw ~ I bought resistors but I'm not sure if I should use them...
Reverse lights work awesome if any has a tough time seeing thse are teh ****. I will post pictures later.

this may sound crazy , I had the same problem and just took out the bulb and turned it ,then re-connected. no clue why this worked but some just have to be in only one way.

your blinker is going to be accellerated if you replace the original bulbs with LEDs due to less resistance in the circuit. try your resistors in those lines and see if it helps

You can wire in those resistors in order to fix the blink rate or purchase these...

It's alright I got all of them to work great. I don't mind my blinker speed and to be honest I like it. I retrofitted to 1157 high power LED's into the parking/cruising lights in the front kouki's and I have to say it looks amazing. It only took 2 25 watt resistors and 2 of these bulbs.
Btw ~ I always use superbrightLEDs.com they are teh ****.
I replaced the following ~
1993 MAZDA RX-7
High & low beam headlamp
H.I.D Retrofitted
Parking light
7443-xHP3 LED bulb ~ White
RL-2525 Marker Lamp Load Resistor x2
Front turn signal
1156-xLX3 Luxeon LED bulb ~ Amber
Rear turn signal
1156-PCB-Axx Amber LED Lamp +36 upgrade
Tail light
1156-PCB-R36 Red LED lamp x4
High mount stop light
Still deciding
License plate
WLED-x5 LED Wide Angle LED bulb ~ white
Back up light
1156-xLX3 Luxeon LED bulb ~ White
Front sidemarker
WLED-x5 LED Wide Angle LED bulb ~ Amber
Rear sidemarker
WLED-x5 LED Wide Angle LED bulb ~ RED
Glove box
WLED-x5 LED Wide Angle LED bulb ~ White
Dome light
WLED-x5 LED Wide Angle LED bulb ~ White
Trunk/Cargo Area
WLED-x5 LED Wide Angle LED bulb ~ White
Cigarette lighter
Spotlight Rechargeable LED Light ~ ******* awesome!
Any ?'s just ask, Thanks for the help you guys
