    When I changed my truck over to LED's I had to go to a flasher with a seperate ground wire.

    Where's this flasher module located? Is it by the fuses on top of the passenger dash or behind the driver's seat? or??

    Yep, I found it. It says 12 lamps on it. I've got 16 although two are LED. Time for an upgrade.

    well good.I knew on the FLD and Classic the brake lights run through the blinker switch but was'nt sure on the Century.Thought switch might b the cause but glad it was just the flasher.

    Brake lights are run off their own separate breaker on the FLD and Classic.
