Are they the ones from mossmini? Mine only blink when i start my car and that is it. Did you check your wiring maybe something is loose? How long have you had them maybe you can return them for a new set?

I suggest you plug in the original lights and see if their brightness is absolutely steady or whether they fluctuate at all (wouldn't be as obvious as with LED's). If they are not completely steady, then there just isn't a good clean signal there and it's not a fault with the LED's.

Ok I'm not crazy they pulse even when on for a while. Wondering if it could be a bad ground or something there must be a way to fix this
