sigh... I have some problems with the interior lighting, ok..so sharpie doesn't work too well for me...it fades.and too dark. i have 3 coats and it fades a little bit in 2 weeks. I just got 50PC of blue LEDs .

Problem No.1

I have to use 330 Ohm 1/4 Watt resistors right? How do I connect them with Led lights? Which leg should I use to connect the resistor?

Problem No.2

How Can I replace these LEDs into the stock little radio bulbs' places for the power source?

Blkmax95c I know you have done this..please help me or anybody knows how to do this..thank you.

 

Power, Resistor, Long Leg, Short Leg, Ground

 

hmm..I'n not sure what you are talking about... so how could I do it?..

 

You need to find which ends are the positive and negative ends on the circutboard. Solder the resistor to the long end, which will be positive. The short end will be the negative end. Solder the respective ends onto the circutboard.

If you do not understand this then please consider redoing the interior...you have some homework yet to be done.

 

yes, I'm redoing this. This is the first time I do those lighting stuff with a circutboard... I understand the resisitor and LED positive and negative legs now. I have 1 more question, How can I find out which side is positive or negative on the circutboard? When the radio face is taken off and let the circutboard faces you. The positive side is on the right or the left? Thx for info.

 

ok..so the side with [ is negative side...but how do i put my led in? do i have to remove the old light bulb and how to connect led and resisitor in that little socket? please help......

 

Man this is going to be hard to explain to you .

 

well...i don't have much knowledge in eletronic stuff, could you please try to explain it?
