You DO need to keep the triangle reflectors as these indicate it is a trailer. The square built in reflectors are for when the lights are used on a vehicle.
not quite lifetime warranty! i contacted them about a spotlight that was letting in water and turning the reflector black and i was told to go back to the distributer..........bit hard when they are defunct.
The spade connectors you removed at the beginning. Do they go over two connectors or just one? I have taken mine apart to replace and not sure how to get it back again.
fitted these to my trailer board today they don't work on the car. but an led trailer board I bought later today worked fine. Did you fit resistors in line and did you test on the vehicle to see if it works?
Could I put powerful led lights in place of the factory light bulbs? ( Back up lights only) Just to have a little better illumination. Also, some people tell me that you can't mix led with regular bulbs and that they must all be led in the system.
Here is a link to led bulbs , you mean these? www.truckelectrics.com/products/24v-premium-led-single-contact-tail-light-bulbs-replaces-149-248-pack-of-2
TruckElectrics.Com You guys run 24V ? Here (N.S) vehicles use 12 VDC .Thanks for responding though. P.S. I don't know why ford doesn't use brighter reverse bulbs.
' better add 3 lights on the trailer taillights.... 1- red ;light is a STOP 1- amber light is a turning left or right or energemcy flasher 1- white is a back up as reverse
Illegal removing the triangle reflectors and why did he not fit lights over the old light holes. Only wired the easy side as you after sort out the wiring as these lights are colour coded for one side only.
Hi John, We drilled new holes because the old holes wouldn't fit, also we wanted to make the video as clear and simple for our viewers..not confusing them with existing holes etc. Only wired the easy side.. dont know what youre getting at there.. And finally, Yes we should have left the warning triangles on, Our mistake, Point taken!
TruckElectrics.Com He said easy side because the colours shown for that light you fitted match the existing loom colours in that side. The other side uses a green wire for the indicator and a black wire for the side light. Standard 7 core trailer wire has different coloured wire for each indicator and each side light. Common wires, red for brake, blue for fog and white for earth, all the others are unique, a point you don't mention in your video or comments.
Rewired my whole trailer with a new kit. Plug in. Doesn't work. Edit: welp. It does work but only when the ground is connected back to the wire and somehow the signals are on the wrong sides. GJ me.
