FAQs

What voltage does this flasher unit operate on?

This Ci Ignition Flasher Unit XFL109 operates on a 12V system.

Can I use this flasher unit with LED indicator bulbs?

This is a thermic flasher unit designed for incandescent bulbs. Using it with LED bulbs may result in hyper-flashing or no flashing. You may need to install load resistors or use an electronic flasher.

What does 'thermic flasher unit' mean?

A thermic flasher uses a heating element and a bimetallic strip to create the on/off switching action, producing the characteristic flashing effect. It's a traditional type of flasher.

Does this unit come with instructions?

While it comes with a holder, specific installation instructions depend on the vehicle's wiring. Consult your vehicle's service manual for detailed wiring diagrams.

How do I know if my vehicle uses this part?

Verify the part number (XFL109) and the description (12V thermic indicator flasher unit) against your existing unit or vehicle's parts catalog.

What is the benefit of a genuine Ci Ignition part?

Using a genuine part ensures it meets the manufacturer's specifications for fit, function, and reliability, maintaining the integrity of your vehicle's electrical system.

Troubleshooting

Turn signals do not flash at all.

Check that the flasher unit is correctly installed and all connections are secure. Ensure the vehicle's battery has sufficient charge and the fuse for the indicators is intact. If using LED bulbs, they may require load resistors.

Turn signals flash too quickly (hyper-flashing).

This typically occurs with LED bulbs. The flasher unit may need replacement with an electronic flasher or the addition of load resistors to the circuit.

Turn signals flash too slowly.

Ensure all indicator bulbs are functioning and have the correct wattage. A loose connection or a failing bulb could cause slow flashing. This is also characteristic of thermic flashers when first activated.

Flasher unit gets excessively hot.

Ensure the correct wattage bulbs are installed. Overheating can indicate a short circuit or a bulb with too low a resistance. Disconnect and inspect the wiring.

  • Robust thermic design for reliable operation.
  • Designed for standard 12V automotive electrical systems.

Cons

  • Thermic operation may result in a slightly slower initial flash rate.
  • Not compatible with LED turn signal bulbs without additional load resistors.
  • Limited to indicator relay function only.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This flasher unit is designed to replace existing indicator relay units. Ensure the vehicle's power is off before disconnecting the old unit. Connect the wires according to the vehicle's wiring diagram, typically involving power, ground, and output for the turn signal switch. The included holder can be used for secure mounting.

Compatibility: This unit is designed for 12V automotive electrical systems and specifically for managing turn signal lights. It is primarily intended for use with standard incandescent indicator bulbs. Use with LED bulbs may require additional load resistors.

Care: Keep the unit clean and dry. Avoid exposing it to excessive moisture or dirt. Regularly check electrical connections for corrosion or looseness to ensure optimal performance.
