JanWebster Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 (edited) DH (bless him) thought he would upgrade the factory fiitted bulbs to LEDs Everything arrived from Autobeam and it looked like a 5 minute job for him -famous last words! Everything was working hunkydory before he installed the LEDs but once he had done the swap the indicators did not work. Even reverting to the old bulbs made no difference 馃槥 There is power to the mirror as a whole as the puddle lights and heated mirror still work. So does anyone have any idea as to the cause and a cure? 聽 Edited December 15, 2020 by JanWebster typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st line x 140 driver Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 thought leds needed ballast to work unless built into lights. Could of damaged wires doing a 5 min job or now blown fuse馃槩 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanWebster Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 Autobeam sell the LED Bulbs as straight replacements. Unfortunately they are uncontactable at the moment. 聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz1000SX Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I would imagine that the indicators are on a separate fuse. Check if there is power going to the bulb connector? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayB Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I have a similar problem, repeater not working. mirror was damaged, replaced indicator module and bulb. no voltage to connector. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanWebster Posted January 2, 2021 Author Share Posted January 2, 2021 It isn't a fuse issue as the mirror repeaters now work with the orginal (halogen) bulbs in place. The Autobeam sequential lights do work if you attach them to a 9v battery. DH thinks it might be a problem with the connector but as the weather is so awful that can wait until it's nicer out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had you tried the plug both ways (turning it 180 degrees)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
