LED indicator bulbs

Recommended Posts

I just bought some LED indicator bulbs to hopefully make the indicators a bit brighter but when I install them they don't work. I put the old style ones back in and indicators worked as they should.

 

I got my father to manually check the bulbs with a 12v feed and they worked fine. He also checked them at 8v and they worked so any idea why they are not working?

If they don't have the load resistors in, they may not be drawing enough current to make the relay work correctly. Are you changing just one at a time? Do they work if you try the hazards instead?

Yeh when I fitted mine to my last corrado I had to buy resistors as they would flash so quickly your couldn't see them less have no resistance compared to a standard bulb so even if they work they'll flash as tho you have a bulb out
