Replaced all bulbs with L.E.D, the Tails needed some working to get them in due to larger in size(a bit) Now i have no brake lights(light doesnt get brighter when hit O brakes) nor do the turn signals work. Found out sometimes when swapping to LED a Load Resistors is (might) be needed for the singals to work. reading a bit, the resistor adds about extra 25W of load:cool: Whats the point of adding L.E.Ds then? I'm gonna order them but damn ya know:rolleyes: oh well HELL OF A LOT BRIGHTER, i was working in the dark needed a flashlight, pulled out the small bulb lite up the night:D Well anyone have this same problem?? I heard, i might just need a different FUSE/RElay so it can pickup the low load fromt he L.E.Ds, anyone know about this?

When going to any LED's you need to equalize out the load, The LED's require A Lot less voltage to operate and you can not have 12v incandescent bulbs and LED's on the same circuit. Thats why Load equalizers are required. The reason your turn signals are not working is because you probably need an Electronic LED flasher. and that flasher has to go under the steering column NOT THE FUSE BOX!

Peoples biggest mistake is thinking all LED's are plug n play... Your system needs to be adjusted to work in conjunction with them or they won't work properly..
