Immobiliser Light Fuse?

[Lamby22]

Hey guys,

Wha fuse/relay runs the red immobiliser light under the CD player on a VR/VS?

 

[cander24]

It's powered off a relay in the BCM. What do you want to do with it?

 

[Lamby22]

Ah I see.. Need to increase the voltage/amps as I have 2 lights I need to run off it but whenever I hook the second on up there isn't enough power to keep both going... Possible solutions?

 

[cander24]

It's a very low voltage supplied to this light as you've discovered. Are you trying to use tungsten or led globes? Use 2 led's and you should be fine. Use a constant and not a flashing led though as the flashing feature is provided by the bcm.

Blue LED under the CD player.. plus a security light "button" like the ones from stateos/caprices

 

[cander24]

So when both are connected do they not work at all or just very weak? Maybe try a new led in the security button? I assume you've confirmed both will work properly by themself?

 

[Lamby22]

Both work properly by themself yeah, when they are both wired up together the security button will flash but not the blue LED, almost as if security button takes over..

 

[cander24]

Just to clarify, the stato security light you're referring to, is it the one that is mounted in a blank button next to rear demist and a/c? And then the other light you have is the standard vr/vs lower model light located under the head unit but you've put a blue led in this instead of the standard red? As long as they're both led's and a constant power led, not a flashing led, then running two should be fine as long as they're wired correct. Im running two in mine.
How have you wired them up together?

if its a high intensity blue LED, they run at a higher voltage around 3.3v. so they work ok on there on, but when you load it up they have issues.
