Side Marker Question??

Does every ones side marker lights come on when the head lights come on..

I thought mine did but then when i put in the Black side markers... Now they don't seem to work!

Yes they do. If yours don't, check to see if you plugged them in correctly. For instance, LED bulbs are directional, and must be turned one way or the other to work.

Oh do i have to put them in the side markers a certain way.

Yes. If the positive current enters the incorrect pole of the LED, they will not light up.

But i never took out the bulb from the socket. I only freed it from the Side marker and then installed the new marker!

Take your sidemarker out again. Separate the lens from the bulb socket. Leave the bulb in the socket, and turn on your lights. I wonder if the blacked out markers are black enough to block the light from the bulb. That's be funny, for us at least.

They are only black on the back. They are clear infront fo the bulb.. They look black from far but they are clear from close.

I just went out side and one of the bulbs was loose lol.. It works fine. The other side the bulb is bernt out. I need to get a new set from the auto parts store lol!

Thanks for your help guys
