Wing mirror repeater indicator issue Fiesta Mk8

[JanWebster]

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 😞

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?

thought leds needed ballast to work unless built into lights. Could of damaged wires doing a 5 min job or now blown fuse😢

Autobeam sell the LED Bulbs as straight replacements. Unfortunately they are uncontactable at the moment.

I would imagine that the indicators are on a separate fuse. Check if there is power going to the bulb connector?

I have a similar problem, repeater not working. mirror was damaged, replaced indicator module and bulb. no voltage to connector.

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.

Had you tried the plug both ways (turning it 180 degrees)?
