I installed LEDs into my DRLs on my TL-S and they arent working. I dont have a DRL light on my dash. Just the lights are turning on. Not sure what it could be before I dive into it. Its been raining for the past few days havent had a chance to look into it yet.

THANKS!!!

 

Did you try flipping them around?

 

Yeah I flipped the polarity. The passenger side was working until I installed the driver side. now nothing. makes me thing a fuse.

 

Sounds like a good next step...

 

Did you use a relay harness? If not i'd suggest doing a search for LED DRL installs on this site,

Summarizing - your LEDs are 12v and not dimmable (not detecting lower voltage) and your car installation is 12v divided by numer of bulbs in circuit 🙂
That's what the links that @thoiboy provided are about.

Check the ground wire to make sure that it's actually touching bare metal and scrape away any paint from the connection point, if needed. That was the issue that I ran into when installing my drls and switchbacks.

 

did you do the DRL LED harness or just plug and play bulbs? DRL's run on a lower voltage than regular bulbs do when operating, and the car kicks the voltage up when used as high beam.

 

The DRLs run in series, meaning that each of the two lights take 6V, not 12. If you plug in the first DRL LED, it will light up, until you plug in the second one. Then the total circuit goes from 12V to 6V, and that is not enough voltage to light up both LEDs. Get the harness.
