I have recently changed all(blinkers, DRL, brake, tag, and parking) my bulbs to LED, I also changed the flasher to stop the hyper flash, but now when my headlights are my turn signals will stay lit and I am unable to indicate that I'm turning.. Any thoughts?

So for those unable to help and curious about my problem I have found the root of all evil. If I'm not mistaking on 03 to 06 Chevy 1500, 2500, 3500 all have a 194 bulb in the corner of both front and back lights which blink with the blinker. for whatever reason when the 3157 bulb is replaced with the LED equivalent the 194 draws minimal power not allowing the correct amount of power to go to the blinker therefore the power is returned to the flasher and tricks it to thinking it's just on. I have tried changing the 194 bulbs back to halogen and this didn't correct the problem either. As of right now I'm 194-less. I'm going to try diodes and things of that nature if I come up with a Solution I will post it as well.
