Hi all have just finished converting my front indicators to DRL/indicators using switch back globes and a 5 pin solenoid connected to the head light to turn off and as I don’t have heated seats just replaced the existing fuse with a 5amp and took my supply direct from there. All workers fine except resistors do not stop hyper flash, tried two different types with no success. Have just ordered non hyper flash leds so hope this works. Assuming must be something in the electronics or body control module as have not had the problem in the past.

There seems to be a critical load point with the BCU controlled indicators when the flash speed jumps from normal (80/min) to almost double. I did get away with one normal LED without resistor and a no-hyperflash one in each indicator circuit and it worked fine although close to the limit for normal operation.
.
I don't like the complexity of external load resistors so would go for the no-hyperflash ones every time. They seem to be readily available in switchback format as well now as per my
link earlier in this thread.
