Default Help with upgrading turn signals

Hello all

I am hoping to find some help regarding upgrading my turn signals in my 99 sportster 883. I recently bought some mini bullet led rear turn signals. I wired it up how the instructions stated and when I turned the key I heard a click almost like a relay click and the new turn signals never came on. Now my turn signals don’t actuate they just stay lit and I’ve also lost power to my speedometer unit and i don’t get any light on it anymore. Does anyone know what could’ve gone wrong? I’ll attach the link to the lights I got and maybe someone here have also done the same for their bike.

The loud click was the fuse blowing out. Go back and check your connections and replace the fuse.

you will also need load equalizers.

I agree, without load equalisers, the signals will hyperflash.
