jpfish Posted October 6, 2003 Report Posted October 6, 2003 I need some electrical help. I just rewired some new lights in my trunk, basically a conversion from the OE curtousy light to some LEDs. I rigged it so it still used the sensor thing in the light bulb holder, so the LEDs turn off when trunk is shut, that works fine. But somehow, the how lighting system in the trunk has converted to like a relay with the interior lights, "you know the lights that turn on when u use the unlock, lock, and open trunk buttons". So when those lights are on, My LEDs wont come on ("or the original Curtously light"), but when the interior lights turn off, the trunk ones turn on. like they were on some relay or somtin. can any one help me? thanks, jp Quote
Gearhead43 Posted October 8, 2003 Report Posted October 8, 2003 If you rewired it.. . Sounds like you reverse wired it. Check your connections!!!!!! Quote
Bolt_Crank Posted October 8, 2003 Report Posted October 8, 2003 you shouldn't have had to re-wire anything.... just run from the positive lead of the trunk light, right from the bulb contact, and run the negative a generic ground, or even back to the negative of the trunk light bulb post Quote
jesse Posted October 9, 2003 Report Posted October 9, 2003 They could be messing with your control modules if they draw different from the original bulbs. Could make all kinds of funny things happen. Quote
