LED Taillight installation problem
Hey guys, bought a set of Black LED tails and i went in a problem
#1, they don't have LED resitors in them.. thankfully i have some from VLEDs.com
#2, they have 1 connector but we have 2 bulbs in stock tails

any of you LED guru's or even soldering guru's have a idea to by-pass the second connector to read that i only have 1 bulb installed to put my load resitor on and make my led blink normal speed and not hyperspeed
Here are the picture of the tails

just upgrade to an led flasher relay
you can use both regular bulbs and leds like this
superbrightleds have them
some local auto parts sell them also

so that will just cancel the 2nd not used connector ?
#4
yep just remove the bulb and put it where it originally sits
#5
do you have the correct part number... they have some but dunno which is and dont wanna buy the wrong one, alsoi plug the LED in 1 of the socket and leave the other one empty and this should make my led flash normally even with a empty socket ?
#6
with the led relay yes and no i dont have the proper part number
but if you pull the old one you should be able to match them up to get the one made for leds

The relay is behind the glove box. Squeeze the tabs that stop the box from falling out & it will dump all the contents on the floor lol.
No power to the fuse is odd, are you sure you're checking the right fuse?

yeah book says veh b/u which is the back up light for truck and i get no power to it

Looking at the tail lights you got, I am confused, I know the top section has LED's, does the middle section have nothing at all in it? It looks like it should have a bulb in there?
Wait, nevermind, thats the reverse light, isnt it? LMAO!
