Default New L.E.D lights installed now flashing too fast

I understand now that the L.E.D. lights do not use all the 12 volts and require resistors to be installed. Is there a main Flasher Relay that I can swap out with a single new low voltage relay instead of wiring up 6-8 separate resistors? There has to be an easier way then to install a single resistor for each light ...

Thank you

You can try running an electronic flasher relay (instead of a thermal one). Otherwise, maybe wire the resistor in at the output of the flasher.

Default l.e.d. light issue

Well after searching on American websites they automati ally tell you about this. They actually offer the flasher relay that fits the ole 2001 Ram Cummins so that will take care of the flashers I will have to monitor the tail lights and may have to wire in a resistor for them.
Thanks for your reply
