LED Dash Lights - Need Help!
I cannot figure out these things! I wanted to replace my dash bulbs with LED's. I purchased the correct kind from Amazon (Lord, I hope!) and I installed them, connected the wiring and - no light. I read on forums about the positive/negative connection and making sure the LED's are turned around. How in the world are you supposed to know?? This is what I am working with.. any advice (quickly!?). My dash is torn up and I have to go to bed in a few hours. So much for an "easy fix" after work - LOL

Ok, do all of the bulbs you installed not work? I ask because you should have got one or two in correctly, which could be that you popped a fuse while in there somewhere.
I'll assume you are dealing with something like this:
If that is the case, and you don't have a popped fuse, then you'll want to twist it out by turning it 1/4 turn, then keeping an eye on where it is now positioned, you'll rotate it just about 180* until the bulb slots into the mounting channels. Turn it back into place with the 1/4 turn and that will send the current the other way through the LED and that should take care of it.
