Default Reprogramming front blinkers after hyperflashing

Was wondering if anyone knew how to reprogram the front blinkers after hyperflashing caused them to stop working. I installed some switchback led's and thought if i drew enough power it wouldn't cause the turn signals to hyperflash. Worked fine for about a week then they started to hyperflash. Now the blinkers up front dont work at all. The parking lights still work but it will not flash when applying the turn signal. I've been to the dealer and they wanted to charge me over $100 to reset the turn signals. Is there a way i could do this myself? I know forscan allows you to turn bulb out on or off but that did not solve the problem and the problem still persists.

Reset the BCM in forscan. "Hyperflashing" did not cause this, the LEDs caused this. You may need to revisit your install.

I reset front and rear on mine with Forscan, The bulb not lighting up sounds more like it needs to be turned around.

What he said. If you used an Amazon or Ebay brand, many of those are directional. If you dont get polarity right, they wont light up. Forscan will only turn off the fast blinking, or hyperflashing.
