Rear LEDs lights, problem on one side

pletevl · 6th July 2014, 17:08

Hi all,

I've just installed my rear LEDs lights and the left one has the brake light lit as well as the LEDs and the LEDs are flickering slightly

Anyone know what's wrong ?

Thanks
Pete.

Ni idea why the pic is upside down, sorry.

Hi

Check the wiring inside the new light is connected correctly. There is a plug type connector inside middle bit. Make sure it is pushed home correctly. Mine fine after that.

if this doesn't work i got a inline resistor and added it between the plug and the LED ring ive done this a few times now seems to cure the problem

I think there must be a dodgy connection because of the flickering LEDs

I'll remove both and electrically compare the good with the bad.
