I’m looking for a flasher relay that’s PnP fitting into place like OEM. Does anyone have a link or can confirm the Diode Dynamics is PnP?

 

The Triton EP34 relay will work.

 

thanks. This works even with the fuse box cover on?

 

The flasher relay is located under the dash; there's no cover for that fuse block.

As randomwalk stated above, the Novita Tridon EP34 is a direct fit. I've seen other relays mentioned and people were shaving the plastic housings on them as they were too "square" to fit back into the OEM location.

Purchase this exact flasher:


I can 100% confirm it fixes Hyperflash, restores the rate/pattern to stock speed, and fits with zero modification required. Straight PnP. I just installed this exact flasher myself a couple weeks ago.





Here it is installed in my car in the stock flasher relay location. Unfortunately you're gonna have a helluva time removing the stock one....it's held in by clips on both sides....real bitch to pull out as there's limited space to work and both clips need to be released simultaneously in order for it to pull out....and even with both clips released it's still held in pretty tight by just the contacts alone. What I did was released one clip and basically rocked the relay towards the other clip and pushed it that way until it popped out of the socket. Nothing was damaged and no clips were broken doing it that way.

 

Working on this currently as I had my turn signals and hazards stop working on the way to work yesterday. I've read that using a small flathead screwdriver to pry one clip off then wiggling a bit to keep it from reseating before working on the second is the way to go. Any opinions before I start on it? (I had to order one and it's not coming in until next week, so I have a bit of time to plan).

I was also wondering if anyone is familiar with troubleshooting the issue before I take the effort, possibly breaking the clips, only to find that it isn't the problem. I have noticed that activating the hazard flasher or turn signal gives a single solenoid type click in the relay. I assume that the way it worked before was that the relay would cycle? Is this a pretty good indication that it is the relay rather than a wiring short or fuse? The circuit appears to have power and both switches seem to be working (it is getting some effect at the relay) so I assume that the relay is likely to be the issue?

 

I plan on spending the $15 for relay puller pliers. They spread the clips allowing the relay to be easily pulled out.

 

Where do you get a good one? Ebay?

 

Never knew such a thing existed....Guess that I'm going to go "DuckDuckGo" that.

 

I have to disagree slightly. Stating that it is only a "helluva time" is understatement. Who the F designed that fuse box and those clips, then decided to snuggle it right up near the side of the car underneath the dash with the tall sills blocking any sort of meaningful access? What a PITA. I managed it, but not before almost torching the vehicle out of frustration.

Every time I could release one clip, the other wouldn't budge. Trying to rock it only succeeded in reattaching the first clip. There's very little room to get two screw drivers into the slot, especially as you really can't see anything and have to contort just to get inside the vehicle. I don't remember the fuse box being that much fun when hard wiring my Valentine One, but perhaps that was because I didn't have to hang upside down for an hour to do it.

Thanks for the tips. I would have been uncertain that I was doing things right given the difficulty of getting the clips off. Perhaps it is easier for smaller people, or otherwise I cannot see why the fuse box was so designed.

 

I installed one hoping to fix the hyperblink issue as the integraded hyperblink fix bulbs from j2sk did not work, and I unfortunately still have hyperblink even with the integraded hyperblink bulbs on top of the EP-34.

I think I'm going to have to get LED load resistors like , but I really don't want to go this route if I don't have to.
