PIAA Super Led Side Lights

[frog1520]

Just tried a set of these in my W140, and they just dont work!

The 'replace bulb' light on the dash stayed off though, so I think the connections were OK.

Any ideas?

Don't they need a resistor or something? And here is me Mr Useless with electrics posting a reply

Do a search for PIAA. There are several side light threads.

LEDs are diodes, so check the polarity.

You need the resistors to be fitted properly
