Thats where I was going with that as well- a No-Load flasher unit will
continue to flash no matter what load is on the circuit. If I were you
Graham - I'd swap the flasher unit for a no-load unit and see if that
makes a difference. I think you can use a No-load on any circuit - so
it wouldn't harm traditional bulbs either.
