I did the corner light rewire so that they are always bright and for some reason the are no longer bright. They dont even get brighter when i hit the turn signal. Anyone else had this problem? Should replacing the bulbs solve the problem or will they do the same thing.

 

check all the wirirng...my corner rewire "went bad" after I put my clear corners in, apparently a wire came a loose! so check that....

 

i appreciate it da-max, i'll check that out.

 

I check my wiring and it was fine the "bright" filament on my bulbs burned out. Has anyone else had this problem? Were they cheap bulbs or what. Any one with this mod, what kind of bulbs do you use and how long do they last?

 

What kind did you have on there?

Some kind of hyperwhite bulbs. The box was totally in asian writing. I got them from a place called carboys. A performance shop.

maybe they are too high wattage??? was the wiring harness burned at all??

 

The wiring harness wasn't fried. You know how that bulb is a dual filament, The high wattage filament was burnt out but the low wattage filament was fine. I don't know what the deal is. Da-Max, what kind of bulbs do you use and have they ever burnt out after a few months in the corner lamp?

 

I have the stock watt bulbs in there now, 21/5 watts, but I've had superwhites in there before and everything worked out fine, not sure of their wattage though. I just ordered some superwhite 1157s though...they are 27/8 watts, so hopefully I won't run into any probs......

 

i had the same problem i put in 21/5 cause i can,t get here the 27/8
what i finally did was solderin a smal piece of copper wires
over the dual contacts of the bulb and now i have constanly 26 W and this works oke
