Hyper Flash after Turn Signal Recall

[Skot5272]

I just had the recall update done yesterday and now have hyper flash on the dash, but turn signals are normal on the truck. No issues with Lasfits causing hyper flash prior to the update.
Hopefully some fix in the future.

Same here. Just had mine done today.

Let us know if the T3 rear bulbs work with the recall!

After a few days of texting with lastfit ,there sending out t3 red bulbs for me to try.They also said from feed back from lariat owners that they don't work properly.

Will do.

Can anyone else who has LEDs in and had the recall done confirm this?....the truck indicates to the driver that there is a bulb out, but the actual signals flash like normal? the... "Here is the real "kicker to this whole situation. The turn signals indicators on the dash hyper blink, but NOT the actual turn signals!"

If that is the case, to me at least, I could put up with the hyperflash ticking in the truck, if the signals to everyone else is still normal pace. I would not be able to stand the hyperflashing lights to everyone else because whenever I see a driver with it (without LEDs), I assume they have no idea why its flashing quick and have no idea about how to maintain their vehicle. The ones with LEDs I assume just had no idea about canbus or load resistors and figured just put an LED in and itll work.

I am also waiting to see those who are more experienced with Forscan to see where the setting would be to remove the bulb out notification (assuming the bulbs still flash the same pace and not hyperflash). Or if there are other options in Forscan to fix this issue.

But there may be an option to tell the truck there are LED signals in...such as this post about the 2020-21 transit forums I came across.

Either way, if more people can confirm that after the turn signal recall with LEDs, if the truck actually hyperflashes the lights or just a driver indicator inside hyperflashing, along with if someone more experienced with Forscan can look into this issue more, would be great!!

I am working through this right now with FORD

I also got the T3 rear bulbs from Lasfit and just installed them last night. No more hyper flash on the dash.

I got mine on the way! Any change in brightness?

I don't see them on the website- can you link to them? I'd like to get them on the way too for when my truck gets here. I have the kit from Lasfit that will probably have an issue, waiting to install.

No noticeable difference in brightness from the original Lasfit bulbs (WT21W) to the new T3 upgraded version. On my drive to work this morning there were a couple of times it seemed liked the signal was going to hyper flash on the dash, but then went to normal speed. Could be my mind playing tricks on me too.

Here is the link, it doesn't show up as compatible with the Maverick, but they are.

Ironically they even have Maverick pictures on that page!

I'm imagining my truck will already have the fix when it arrives. Hopefully by then Lasfit will either have a dedicated bulb or officially be swapping the ones that came in my order for these (hopefully no cost).

I put on my T3 rear bulbs and they don't work properly. Yes the hyperflash goes away, but I noticed that sometimes one side would just stop lighting up. I'd revert to the old bulbs until they come up with a fix.

Oh that's a bummer. Initially I had 1 bulb not light up, but took it out and re seated it and everything appears to be working fine. I'll have to keep an eye on mine to make sure there are no issues.

Welcome to an exclusive club which seems to be temperature related, not necessarily LED related. We don't have custom jackets yet, but will soon.

The old Lasfit bulbs don’t have this problem though, only the T3 4257R does this.

Well.....do we know that for sure? I am running the "old" bulbs and I have the issue.....Intermittently. So does the other guy who was commenting on my other thread. He had it happen with both Lasfit and the stock OEM bulbs. All I am saying is that we don't know for sure if your running lights went out due to the new bulbs, or if it is just the first time you noticed it. It does seem to be random and hard to reproduce.

Are yours 100% out 100% of the time with the T3 4257R? Or it is intermittent? For me it took not just restarting the truck, but letting it sit for about 30 minutes without the engine running. Some folks say changing the lighting dial to manual versus Auto fixes it temporarily as well. Let us know if any of that works for you!
