It sounds like there is a bad connection or ground or there isn't a load resistor on the running light circuit, Usually load resistors are used to cure hyper flash on a turn signal. But since LED lights draw such little power it could be that another load resistor is needed such as # DI34ZR. This is especially true if it is happening on both sides. If the issue was one side I would say there is a loose connection or bad ground.
