wiring to a fues
hey i was tying to make a clean install on some LED's and i wanted to
wire them to turn on with my parking lights. So i cut the wire and stuck it in to
my Parking light and the Parking light truned on but the LEDs didnt. So
i dont know if im doing something wrong or what.

neon tubes and leds are two different things. neon tubes come with inverters most of the times, which usually include bridge rectifiers. so it doesnt matter which wire is positive or negative. leds, on the other hand, have a polarity. the wire that activates your parking lights is negative switched i believe, so the other wire should go to +12V. did you try the wires both ways in case you had it backwards?
ive got the LED washers too
but only as cheap OEM replacement.......... never run um, ever......... I at one point actually had them operate with the turn signals, but just said F*** it
I also have footwell lighting as well, theyre thin LED strips, because with a neon, KICK, oh crap..... kick an LED bar and nothing happens......... anywaystheyre blue and wired indirectly to the parking lights via a relay, when the lights are on, the lights draw power from the battery/main electrical supply
