Has anyone had the dealer program the PCM to be compatible with LED lights?

They have it in the factory upfitters manual, as there are flat bed silverados, etc, with led lights so they caqn program the PCM to have a proper flash rate.

Ok, so I've determined that I only have a fast-blink issue when the battery level indicator is below mid way (as at least one other has stated here).

My question is: What causes this level to sometimes drop below mid way, and otherwise be above mid way? I haven't noticed any particular "cause" of the occasional drops...

Thanks!

Well, that's good... Or bad, I guess. LOL So, anyone know why the level drops on occasion?

Not sure, but I'm going to order some 50 watt resistors and trash the ones that came with it. I can't stand the fast blink anymore :emotions122:

6 or 7 Ohms appears to be the solution. I have been running with the 7 Ohm replacement resistors now, well since my last post, and to date the lights have been rock solid and no rapid blinking.

Im super sorry but i am not very electrically inclined. Could anyone list exactly what they need to get and where they would go on the car. This rapid blink thing is killing me.

Thanks.
