I had always assumed that it used a bi-metal blinker. Then I started researching for this topic and was surprised to find out that not only is there no blinker, there isn't even an interposing relay.

Probably need to install resistors to pull the load down. LEDs take a lot less power than incandescent bulbs.

Thanks, where would I get them, which one and where do they go?

I've got a few spares that I'll sell you? $12 shipped for 2?
They go between the positive and negative wires.

Do you need one for each bulb or just the two?

I'm about to change out all the bulbs on my wife's FX50S, would I have the same problem on that?

Yessir. You only need to use a resistor on the turn signals.

I think I have 4 or like 10 of the exact resistors you need.
PM me, I'll cut you a deal so I can get these things out of my garage (they're brand new btw) or you can text me (31O)eight nine three-42O7

I'm honestly not sure. I think there are some threads on here about it though. Sorry I'm no more help.
