parkers / headlights issue

[calais06]

Hey all,

I'm having a issue with my my06 ve Calais.

I have installed HID's into my headlights and put LED's into the Parker's. There is no issue there, the issue is now the indicator to say if the lights are on on my dashboard don't work.. They work fine for the fog lights but nothing for the headlights/Parker's.

Does anyone have some sort of clue what may be causing this and a possible solution? its not really a big deal, I just want everything that should work to be working..

thanks

Do you mean the blue high beam and fog light dash indicator? Because low beams don't have a dash signal??

[calais06]

Those two work.. I remember there being one that was two lights facing outwards that dont come on anymore.

not on my ve calais v 07 ???

Alright thanks, must have got it confused with one of the other cars.

I have led parkers and HID heigh beams and the display lights work fine.
Could you upload a pic of your problem?

Where do you people get your LED parkers from. So far I`ve bought 8 T10 style 4LED parker bulbs from Jaycar and after about a month they all seem to melts 1 diode and become a 2LED anda week later it looks like a disco going on in my headlights as they flash the last bit of life out of the. I leave my headlight switch on auto. Going back to a filament globe I think its less hassle and cheaper

eBay... I had some T10 LED parkers in my VT that lasted about 3 years before selling the car. I've got a couple of sets of WHITE ones for my VE so far and they have blue in them So I just got some Philips ones which seem perfectly white... Have to put them in sometime soon.

I have 3x5? Smd leds with x3 on top aswell. Had them for 3 months, then 3 weeks in the calais and one doesnt work. Hopefully just came out a bit because they are so expensive from jaycar.

They range from like $3-15 on eBay, you just have to wait 2 weeks from China.

I got These, they took 3 days to get to perth and they are fantastic :-)
Ebay Parker lights
Oh and they are perfectly white

[StoneX]

All the ones I bought looked perfectly white too until they were put next to 4300K HID and suddenly they looked blue

[BigBoss]

That is interesting, i will be installing 5000k high and low beam soon, i will update if they look blue

[BigBoss]

Just installed my 5000k HID kits and my parkers still look white :-)

[StoneX]

5000K is different to 4300K

I might order some and do another comparison, like this.

[BigBoss]

Haha yep i understand the difference .

In answer to the OP, I'm pretty sure there is no indication on the dash for parkers or low beam headlights, only for fog lights and high beam.

When your lights are just on parkers it should have thoes sideways facing lights on the dash, on low beam the indicator will turn off but
