Changed side marker, parking, and tail lights to LED. Why are my turn signals not flashing???

Put the old bulbs back in. Amperage draw isn't enough to trip the flasher. There have been several threads on this subject. A few have had success with LED most have not. LED bulbs are a computer circuit. Sockets and wiring were not designed to provide a clean enough connection.

BINGO!
They make a load balancer that you can install and I think a 'blinker' relay that will work with the LED.
I think both add a load to the system to simulate amperage draw.

You can try this. I was thinking about doing the same thing.
