As I said before. the incandescent bulbs provide a ballast, extra resistan=
ce on the circuit, that stops the bleed through the trafficator indicator t=
o the other bulbs. Extra bonus, the front bulbs may light more brightly si=
nce they can draw more - mine did.

Subject: [TR] 1972 Triumph TR6 - blinker problem
This makes no sense to me. Apparently in the last few weeks I replaced the=
front bulbs with LEDs. The rear already had them.
Replacing the front bulbs with analog bulbs fixed the problem, and, as a bo=
nus, the green trafficator light is now working. I haven=92t seen that for=
years.
Now the blinkers work as they should.
