Illuminate me please

Hello again,
Yet more problems.

Fitted a set of bearmach led lights today and only the back lights (break light) work. The indicators go tick tick as normal but only the original little side lights work? Not one indication and neither of the front side lights work. It's a defender obviously so it was probably wishful think in that it was ever going to be easy! Help?

where did u splice power from etc and where are the Led lights fitted are they headlamps or what

No it's a kit from bearmach, every light except main headlamps. Says on the instructions just plug in to original plugs, change the flasher relay and off you go. Out of 8 lamps only the two red ones at the rear work

have you asked Bearmach?

With LED's the most likely cause is that the + & - are reversed.

Don't forget that unless you have fitted ballast resistors or a compatible flasher-relay then the flashers will not work correctly as the relay will not sense the lower power draw.

They plug into the existing little white plug blocks. How can I change the +&- ?
It's odd that the ref lights work, side,full and breaks but none of the others do. I fitted the relay supplied behind the metal plate blow the fuse box. Don't know what else I can do

Chuck the lot out and go back to std, reliable, cheap, easy. Why change?

Old lights polarity didn't matter they won't all have been fitted right maybe?
How much was your kit I saw an rdx one with all nas lights clear led's for 170 Inc side flashers and relay

Have you fitted the correct lead into the correct "white block"?
