Question Club Car Precedent with LED lights - Turn Signals Not Working Properly

2014 Precedent with Alpha Body LED head and taillights .. Can't get my blinkers to flash and I'm ready to set the cart on fire.

Brake Light Relay/Timer and all work fine.

However, the turn Signals are not Working Properly.
I know this has to be related to the flasher.
If I remove outside housing of the flasher and press the top part of the relay up and down with my hand - I get a dimming blink like I should.

However, just using the turn signals without manually messing with the flasher piece - when selecting signal either way, the front amber lights in the front stay solid, while the rear light blinker part of the tail-lights start bright and fade down quickly to a light dim (almost as if they want to make a complete flash but can't quite do it)

I'm guessing off the top of my head this has something to do with LED lights not having the amount of resistance needed? Anyone know a solution?

"Get a flasher designed for LEDs / electric one" that's not a lot of fun buying 5-6 of them to find out none of them work. Been there and done that, do I remember the solution? NO. No matter how many carts I've built I always run into something entirely different on the same model cart no matter how many times I've built one. Call me crazy but very true.

Also wanted to note* The Horn, Headlights, Rear Lights, and Brake Light Relay/Timer all work fine. ONLY the flash does not.

Also photo of various flashers tried using.

Attached photos of turn signal setup...

Short 6 second clip of what it's doing. Flipped the lever once and back off and then again to show

I like where your heads at - so something that's like 9v-12v rated or something?

I would use the LGT-215 Flasher which is a low draw flasher and would work, but I don't think I can buy that flasher locally and I wouldn't have time to order one online and wait for it.

Wish I knew the specs for the LGT-215 in greater detail so I could try and match it up to something.

I think I found the specs for the LGT-215 2 Prong flasher .. it used to be written on the top of the housing and then they switched to a solid shell with no writing on it. Looks like I need something around 3.4w to 10w

I bought an electronic one from advanced auto that I use on my light house at the lake and it only has one led 1157 bulb with the brake and running circuit parallel. Works fine. I will see if can read the part number through the opaque glass and reply.
