Rear LED turn signals
Hi all
Has anyone done rear turn signals?
I put in some high quality philips - and they don't turn on at all? But halogen bulb works. Has anyone had any luck with paceman and rear turn signal leds? leds work in brake (but havent found a bulb that lights up evenly or bright enough so took them out) front turn signals work in led also. So weird. I will maybe trying coding out bulb checks on rear turn signal and try again.
thanks

Hi had a similar issue on my CM. Sometimes on LED's they are directional, try tuning them 180degrees

What is your goal? Hoping that an LED bulb would be brighter? Most aftermarket LED exterior bulbs will actually be dimmer than the original. The light fixture lenses and reflectors are optimized for the light pattern of a standard bulb. Whatever you do, change the bulbs only on one side first and compare the brightness with the other side. Verify that you can easily see the light in bright daylight. Many aftermarket LED bulbs are dangerously dim.

My goal is to have instant on and off, it looks much nicer imo. I bought some off Jdm astar that are brighter than halogen, will post pics when I get em.

on My 2015 R61 and they are brighter than the OEM bulbs. I'm having 1 issue with 1 of the Red LED (Right Outer Bulb Location) intermittent blown and working that also effects the left side of the rear tail lights. I will be returning it. because all others work great without a bulb out error
