I just bought a brand new set of switchbacks from autolumination about a week ago... running lights are supposed to be white and when the blinker is turned on its supposed to go back and forth between amber and white.. im sure everyone knows this but when i put the switchbacks in they worked for maybe an hour and then I noticed one was completely amber and wasnt changing back to the white running light while the other was working properly.. shortly after I got this....... .. and thats how they seem to be stuck now.. never white ..even when I turn my blinker on. About a month ago I bought one switchback from autolumination to replace one of the very first ones I bought and it didnt work right either.. I got in touch with customer service but they insisted it wasnt the bulb... So I decided to give them another try and this is what happened this time.. anyone have any clues? I mean it doesnt look too bad so im living with it but its just I paid money for something else that im not getting... my first set works fine but they have a few blown leds... so idk how it could be any electrical problem with the car.. any suggestions would be appreciated thanks guys..

 

i think there are people on here that run the autolumination switch backs just fine, or maybe they are using them as DRL's. i don't recall.

but did you install a resistor for the switchbacks? i'm guessing it was hyperflashing so bad that the bulbs went bad?

if you did install a resistor than i don't know what to tell you.... maybe you should try out v-leds next time? their products seem to be better, but that's just my opinon.

 

^ Even if the bulb die out due to hyper blinking, it shouldn't die out in one hour... I think it's the product itself.

+1 for switchbacks from V-LEDS.

 

I had resistors installed the first day I ever put switchbacks in it.. I couldnt live with the hyperflashing, like I said I ran my first set for two years no problems.. except a few blown bulbs. I think its the product too and I was going to buy this last set from vleds but I wanted a higher led count hoping they would be brighter since I just bought the philips 85122+ HID replacement bulb... and I think Vled only had 48 SMT or something like that... this sucks... I hate to have to buy yet another set of switchbacks.. I already know what autolumination customer service is going to say
