I have converted to led indicators and the adjustable wipac relay keeps breaking. In the six weeks since i have converted i have gone through three relays

Had anyone had similar issues, and what have you done to resolve it.

Cheers

P.S. i have a repeater set of upper lights on the back, so i have six indicators in total.

Yes we had problems and went back to normal lights on our Defender tipper,as i remember it was 

somthing to do with running the non led repeaters with the new led lights and the green flasher bulb in the instrument panel ....they dont work together... i do belive you can get the parts needed from Paddocks

Good luck with that one

You need one of these Mr Girdle https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Smart-universal-fitting-7-way-bypass-relay-TEB7AS-Towbar-Towing-canbus-wiring/321086115886?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D53343%26meid%3D5d50d57b831b426c82276dfcdcf6a569%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D5%26rkt%3D12%26mehot%3Dpp%26sd%3D163183785379%26itm%3D321086115886&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851

Run another fused power source to it and connect it onto the rear wiring harness , everything non led on the vehicle including the towbar wire into this unit. It basically just senses voltage and switches the relevant circuit taking its power from the other source. Your led relay wont know its there.

We have possibly narrowed the problem to the shared indicator light on the dash. I have now split the circuits and have two flashers on the dash on each indicator. So far so good

I will give that a go Bob if the current fix doesn't work.
