Led Tail Light Bulbs

So if they are the same then why is it causing such a problem???

I know it sounds stupid but check and see if the leads are shorted out.

what is a lead?

sorry, the little metal wires that make contact with the plug on the car. If one is kind of crooked and touches the other one then it will blow your fuse.

Well I got all of them to light up...now the problem was when I hit the brakes...it didnt light up brighter. Only my 3rd brake light came on....but the running lights were on

Led taillights kind of suck in my opinion, they don't light up very bright. I guess they're bright but not much brighter when the brakes are pushed.

They probably need to be re-wired. They don't drop right in most vehicles usually.

the set that wc_alero has I rewired.....it has to do with the way the wires attach to the terminals in the socket.

you have 2 negatives and 2 positives..... they just happen to be in the wrong spot......if you look at the regular bulb, you can see how the wires are arranged by looking closedly and following it up to the filament...you will notice you have 1 for each side of the 2 filaments...hense the reason for 4 wires...on the LEDs they are just wired differently.

took me forever to get them right.
