I ran a search but didn't find what I was looking for. So Here's my question.
I installed 4in LED's into some rusty's taillight boxes. But they are acting really weird. Because i can't connect the turn and brake light on the same line. I had to wire my running lights/brake light to the top red LED and the turn alone to the bottom amber LED.
Here's the problem. when I have my running lights on and turn on a blinker it acts normal. But if the running lights aren't on and I turn a signal on it makes all 4 LED's (both left ones and both right ones) blink like a turn signal. Even if I unplug the turn signal LED and turn it on they all still light up except the one I unplugged. I thought it might be the grounds so I re-did them to all new ones. Still does it. If I turn on my signal (having all 4 lights blinking) and probe the parking/brake light wires with a light tester I read no power to any lines.
The only thing I can think of is that because they are LED's and not bulbs That the whole system is back feeding a volt or 2 making them light up, when a volt or two wouldn't light up a bulb. So I wasn't able to see the problem before.
Does anyone have any suggestions on exactly how I can remedy this problem?:hang:
