Apart from what others have suggested, in particular Bobk "defeats the object", I would suggest not using a 555 at all or bypass the one you have.I want to know how I can change an oscillating current (i.e. from an NE555 output) to a stable continuous DC
This makes absolutely no sense. If what you want is a constant DC voltage, use a voltage divider from the power supply. Why would you use a 555 timer to produce a constant DC voltage?
Hi Ken,Sree,
Is this somehow related to your other threads? buzzers/delays/555? It really helps if you tell us what you overall goal/project is.

Dear alecIf I've understood correctly I think this should do what you want, assuming the blinker provides 12V pulses.
Each blink pulse switches on Q1 to discharge C1. While C1 voltage is low, M1 conducts to supply 12V to your 555 circuit. When blinking stops, C1 charges up to 12V via R1 and M1 turns off.
Component values aren't critical. M1 can be almost any P-channel MOSFET rated for >20V.
Any low-power NPN transistor should do.
