converted front turn signal light bulbs to LED. worked....installed LEDs in rear --brake and turn signal. nothing works including front signal bulbs...do I need to do something to the electrical system to get the LED bulbs to work..do they draw more current??? do I need a heavy duty flasher unit?? 2. fan is on all the time with ignition on. even in the off position.

Absolutely, it comes with instructions.

By the way, I’ve seen them sell as low as $10.

What fan? The one for cab air?
Keep battery disconnected until you resolve it.

In shot you have a short. Bad ign sw or melted wire from battery to amp gauge feeding the acc side of sw. Or the wiring was altered at sometime.

Pull the fuse see if turns off. Unplug this connector under the steering column. If the fan stays on, you have a short in the dash wiring harness. If not it's the ign sw.

The blower motor is feed from acc side of fuse box. It's a misnomer showing battery. Not directly connected to battery.

Might be just a bad sw.
