Rear LED Indicator bulbs

Recommended Posts

Bought a set of amber LED indicator bulbs as I'm going to tint the rear lights red, but when fitted they flash like I've a bulb out, I'm guessing this is because the use very little power and the car can't detect them or I could be way off. Anyway, how do I cure this little problem pls

The LED bulbs have a very low resistance and you will need to wire in resistors to rectify the problem. Do a search on e-bay for 'LED bulb resistors' and you will pick up a pair for around £6. Scroll down through the post below and you will find pictures showing the wiring required.

get the ones with the external heat sink - more expensive but worth it . I may have a spare set with the spades still on them so you just have to plug them in.

Will check and let you know.
