Ok now let me start off with this, if you think that fast blinkers are ricey, it is your preferance, i made this post for the people who actually were interested in them in the past, and the ones interested now.

Personally i know they are NOT JDM, whatever, who cares, its just a simple touch. I have also found they work great while changing lanes, people think its an emergency light of some sort and tend to let you in more often, i swear to god. They may be annoying or what not but i made this post for the ones who wanted it.

I did them on my 94' Civic Coupe.

First unscrew your turn signal lense. Take out your bulb socket.

Take the bulb out of the socket, if you look inside there is a little tab on the side or the wall of the socket, a little metal piece sticking out that touches the bulb when you place it in the socket.

That is the sensor that tells the computer the bulb is "out" or needs to be replaced. By blocking that from touching the bulb you have fast blinkers. Now the positive/negative is still in contact fromt eh bulb base (the 2 small bumps on the bottom of the bulb) So dont mess with those.

I taped off the metal sensor and put the bulb back in and it blinked faster than stock. I like them, they look kinda good TO ME! MY OPINION!.

Now my car isnt fast, so i made it seem fast i guess....well whatever, i like it and many others do too.

This is a tech forum i realize it. I also realize it is full of opinionist's more that tech helpers. So here is my little DIY.

I hope you find it useful, it is very easy to do, nothing is permanent, its a piece of tape for god sakes anyways.

If you need any more info PM me.

I am not sure about other models of Hondas and cars but i am positive they have a sensor on them all, so you just need to experiment.

Later all.

P.s. I dont want to hear any hate comments, this is just a simple DIY i thought some of you would like. So enjoy it, and your all entitled to your own opinions, but come on, are your really going to be mean about it? Give me a break, grow up, and enjoy your car!

 

i bought these led blinkers from pepboys that did the same thing. they are a bit more expensive than a piece of tape but brighter than the stock blinkers. oh, and yea, **** jdm. i got a body kit and alteza's and a b16 (jdm of course cause its faster than the usdmf) and i like them. if you have a problem with that eat me.

 

Decent write up.

 

Whatever floats your boat. If you like it, that's all that matters.

But everytime I see blinkers flashing faster than strobe lights, I literally want to smash their lights in.

 

See thats werd man, i dont like altezzas but im not going to go make fun of you for it, so thanks for a decent reply bro.

I was going to do the LED ones but they cost cash that i dont got ha.

Peace man.

Anyone else?

 

Now this is HONDA-TECH

 

All you have to do is put a smaller watt bulb. The blinkers work off an electronic flashing relay. The way that relay is designed, if a bulb pops or if more current (or less resistance) is flowing through that relay, it blinks at a faster rate. It acts as a courtesy notice for the driver.

 

Or that^ But i didnt have time/money to buy smaller bulbs or think of that. why do all that when you can just use electrical tape?

But yeah i know what you mean

 

first time clicking the EG+ Civic / Del Sol forum since I sold my hatch and this is the garbage I get to read?

 

pfft. Like i said......H_T people are sad.....Go back to where you left too then...damn nobody cares about what you think anyways...

Oh well anyone else?

 

got to kragen/autozone and buy some of those red LED blinkers and it will go *BLINK*BLINK*BLINK* like crazy also

 

Tape = FREE *VERSUS* LED Bulbs = $.$$

You get the idea....

 

i used to think body kits, and altezzas were cool....but i realized how gay they were to me....but do what YOU want to YOUR car...I am not all about bashing people...i am just a very opinionated person

 

*YAWN*

I agree with you. its cheaper just taping it. but I like the red lights.

 

i hate bodykits n altezza..but i like fast blinkers. why the **** not? how the **** is that rice?? i hate SLOW blinkers, gets on MY nerves.

 

ill take my primered gray...bone stock coupe over an orange civic with a body kit and altezzas anyday

umm.... there is no "sensor" that tells the blinker relay if the bulb is burned out. you just removed the ground from the light bulb. cutting the black wire from the harness will acheive the same effect. you'll also notice that your front turnsignal is only 5 watts now, pretty much invisble during the daytime. your parking light still works b/c the blinker contact shows (-) when off, and (+) when blinking

 

You should have had pics in your DIY. If you're in Cali your blinkers can't blink more than 4 times a second.

 

you can change the resistor in the blinker unit, should be a littler black box by the fuse box.

oh and faster blinkers are gay. yes, they do make you turn faster.

does any one know what resisiter oto put in there.. i know i saw it b4

 

I remember I was trying to make my sides stay off when I turn on my headlights. Snipped one wire and it made it hyperblink instead. Looked okay and was free at least lol.
