LED dashlight issue on EV
« on: October 04, 2022, 01:42:04 PM »
Hello folks, I have  recently replaced the dash light bulbs on my 98 EV with LEDs, which are polarity sensitive. The EV has one bulb right at the top, to indicate the turn signals are on instead of separate indicators for the left and right. With the LED bulb it only lights up for one side, If I flip the bulb around it will only light up for the other side. It wont work to show that both left and right signals are working. Is that how it is with one LED  indicator bulb for both sides? Is there any "workaround"?

Thank you
Rick D.

Talk to Greg Bender - you'll need one of his little harnesses with diodes to correct that issue.
