Side lights not working

Post by 400RRJ »

I fitted some chear LED t5 bulbd that blew - well melted in the side light bulb holders. I have just purchased new LEDs from Crazy LED's which i have just fitted and for some reason they are not working. :cry: :cry:

all was working fine with them before fitting the ceap LEDs.

Anybody got any advise on where to start looking for the fault.

Thanks

i did exactly the same thing mate but the ones from crazyled's worked fine. The connection was a bit funny - needed a bit of wiggling around to get it right.

I also found they worked better if you bend the pins on the T5's around each side of the bottom of the LED.

Have you tried getting a multimeter on the connections in the bulb holder? Just to confirm there is no power coming through.

not yet but hoping to have a play with the new LED's and a meter to check what happened. Hopefully will be all sorted very soon
