And someone said that i used capacitor, NO i didn't use any capacitor. Forget LED, why didn't it blink when I had put 10w bulb ??

These flashers have a lower limit. When you cross that, the flasher will not blink but remain ON continously.

Making a custom one with a 555 timer IC is not too difficult! You can search the net on this one!

Post Console backlighting

Those LED's on the console look fantastic.
I too want to go for those white one's on my CBZ console.
Unfortunately i am a layman to the electronic world (management grad.)

Guys, Could you please tell a simple way that i could benefit from?
I think i have enough juice in the battery as my brakelights are allready LED's and I'm running on stock headlamp.

I asked my mechanic about this and he said that it was not possible and even if they replace the bulbs the glow would be insufficient.

^^Unfortunately, there is no easy way on this one. You have to fix a LED behind each digit on the meter and connect them properly thru resistors (and diodes if needed.)

^^ Nope, did not make one personally, but should not be too difficult to make one. Circuits will be available on the net.

^^Yes i am trying to get some knowledge about them.

I saw a few LED lights like LED STRIP, CIRCULAR LED LIGHT & BAR TYPE LIGHT. Can these be any useful to illuminate the console?

They are available as an aftermarket accessory in the automobile shops.
Circular ones cost 45rs and look somewhat like this


The color is white ,output is substantial and the plastic in front is clear type.The main drawback is that these do not adjust in the space inside the console. There are 12 white LED's and they are connected with 4 resistors(one after three).



The thing needed is somewhat of this size except that you have to dismantle it to make it fit. Don't know about power consumption though..
Trying for something like this or else a digi console like that of Gs150 so that my stock console remains safe.
