led indicators
-
Can I use LED indicators with a trail tech vapour? I don’t run any indicators at the min but I’m sure I need them for MOT
@ricky0115 You do not need them for the MOT, so long as you do have a switch.

MOT testers are totally unpredictable when it comes to this. I've been to places that claim you don't need indicators as long as your switch for them is taped up, however I've been to others that say you either run ALL lights working, or remove them completely.
Best idea is to phone up your tester and ask them if they're able to pass your bike without indicators.

@oldman thank you i have changed the head light bulb to a led h4 philips lumiled as well but not tryed it in the dark so dont know what the rusults will be had to use the old bulb base to fit into the light as they diffrent to standard h4 bulb but with a dremel was easy to do

I have a H4 led aswell, you can buy adaptors on ebay ect to make them fit, so I took the easy route on that one. Love it at night compared to stock. I have led al the way around, but no blinkers installed.

You do not need any specific diode, just enter 1A schottky diode, chosse a reasonable voltage and take the cheapest (3A etc. is also fine).To make the build more compact you can also use any other ground source eg from the high beam indicator:

Hi there new to this forum but currently have bought 2 x DT125 X 2005 & 2006
I tried this tutorial for led indicator upgrade and did not work but what I did do on these models is to cut both wires from the indicator bulb holder one green and one brown then solder the diode to the green cable only between connection block and bulb holder then insulate the brown wire from block as no longer required and then extended brown wire from bulb holder and connected it to a good earthing point and that seems to work on these models also you need to change the flasher unit for a led one
Kind regards
I hope this helps anyone who wishes to upgrade to led indicators on the latest models -
Also don't forget to change bulb in light cluster for an led
Kind regards
