(This is my very first post and I apologize in advance if I have placed it in the wrong section)
Hey guys, I purchased 4 Tail/Brake globes for the tail lights on my WH Statesman, Because i have tinted my tail lights and the original bulbs just don't cut it. The ebay add said they were just plug & play but when I put them in they didn't work at all and started to smell like they were burning, I thought it may be that they were getting too much power so i tried wiring a resistor in, but no luck, Then I figured out that WH's clusters tell you if a Tail light is out so I'm wondering if the Computer is even bothering sending out power to the LED globe because it thinks the original bulb is blown.
The SMD LED Globes I'm trying to Install:
If anyone could shed some light on the subject or tell me how to fix the problem that'd be muchly appreciated,
Cheers,
Axyl
