QUOTE(brownaar @ Oct 26 2016, 05:37 PM)  Brad, Did you have any issues with the LED bulbs? I replaced my marker, turn, brake, and back-up lights with the appropriate LED bulbs and my lights do weird things. The driver's brake light flashes with the driver's turn signal. One front side marker flashes with the turn signal but the other one doesn't flash with it's corresponding turn signal. I did install the load resistors on the rear turn signal circuits. Everything works normally when I put the regular bulbs back in. Just curious if you had a similar experience. Thanks, Aaron No, essentially zero problems. I had one bulb in the right rear taillight that had some contact issues due to the classic "melted socket" problem, I shimmed it with some brass stock and it was fine. Did you order CAN bulbs instead of "normal" bulbs? CAN bulbs (car area network) are for later cars that use a common buss and an addressing protocol to turn them on and off, and detect bad bulbs. No idea of what would happen if you used them in a 45-year-old car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif). |
