Nice job switching up your lights. Actually the safest turn signal setup I've seen is the GM truck from 99-2002 because the turn signal lens is tinted amber helping really distinguish you're turning while the one on my truck is separate but still red like the brake.
AnthonyJ350 Thanks !! Your quite right .My cars are amber front and rear . I agree the set up on the '99 to 2002 is the best , but .. no more ! I looks sooo cheap . It can be done !!! Separate turns and tails make sense as there safer .
Ya I think it's a manufacturing cost because they can just have the brake do double duty on the same wires as opposed to running another line just to do one sole function. I wish more trucks were setup with the separate signals.
AnthonyJ350 Yes! I wish that too . I look at what they have and in my head design separate tails & signals . Cost is put into things you may never use .
I own a 2006 Chevy Silverado 1500. Both my high and low beam headlights have led bulbs, as well as my tail lights, reverse lights, turn signals on front and back, and daytime running lights. Visibility is so much better when driving at night.
BakerOne Did you check the "cards" in the top right hand corner where youtube suggests other videos? Cause there is a load resistor video there. *mic drop*
AnthonyJ350 , Im having issues finding a video for my 04 silverado doing a load resistor install. I have 2 black wires and 1 blue to rear blinker. Which do the load resistors go to?
I did the same thing with my Chevy Cruze yesterday. I replaced the tail lights, the rear marker lights, and the plate lights with LEDs. I got a brighter indication and it seems a little more bold since I used red LEDs. I put my lights on after dark and I really liked how much nicer my tail lights look. I considered replacing the stock lights with an LED housing like you find on some other newer cars, but this was a much cheaper option. I plan on changing out my reverse lights and front marker lights with LEDs as well. I'm not so sure about my turn signals as those would require replacing the flasher relay to prevent hyperflashing and buying load resistors.
I have a '07 Jeep Grand Cherokee. There is one tail light bulb for the brake, tail & signal. I checked all the wires & installed the resistor. I made sure the brake light, tail light & turn signal worked...and it did (all in the same bulb). Then I installed the LED bulb. Only the brake light & turn signal worked. I flipped the bulb around and the only the parking light would work. Hmmm? Any ideas/suggestion? Thanks!
I bought some nice LED lights for to replace my tail lights in my camper. When you push on the brake the lights flash three times and then they stay on.

the biggest issue with aftermarket Led Taillights is when they are just as bright or brighter than your brake light. the person behind you might not notice the fact that you hit the break
Hey! I hope you can help me with this. I have a 2010 Chevy HHR and I just installed 3157 LED Red Tail light/turn signals on the car. When I turn on the auto/DRL they won’t flash but when the DRL is turned off they work but they don’t work correctly. When I turn on the right turn signal, both signals flash and my license plate light flashes along with the DRL markers. When I hit the brakes and use the left signal it won’t flash but when I’m not using the brakes and use the left signal it works. What did I do wrong??
No where is there video on the replacement of rear right led turn signal 2001 cadillac deville. Mine doesnt have bulb. Has led. Ive taken light fixture off, but no where to plug in new led. Any suggestions?
They are faster because LEDs light up instantly whereas incandesent bulbs or halogen ones do not they take 0.5 seconds for the filament to warm up enough to get full brightness.
I just attempted to put LED bulbs in the rear brake/tail lights and turn signals on my 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I didn't change the front turn signal lights out with LED. The turn signal cycled about twice as fast as when the incandescent bulbs were being used. It was as if one of the bulbs was burned out. Is that normal?
I can't get my brake light, to work correct on my 03 dodge ram 1500. I got load resistor on all four coner of the truck, for turn signal. I need them but, when I turn on the lights or press the brake, the led bulb brake don't work correctly. I have led all the way around the truck, it look stupid with two original bulbs. HELP PLEASE!!!
It's best to replace the flasher relay. I had a similar issue with my silverado. Replacing the flasher relay is a lot easier than to install an individual resistor per bulb.
LEDs will eventually be in all vehicles. All new cars and trucks are coming with them now and have been for many years. They last longer and take vibration/abuse a lot better than standard bulbs as well as use a lot less power and are brighter.
Painter D I like LED setups like this because if you have failure you replace the bulb. Newer vehicles have a lot going on and you have to replace the whole housing which could cost an average of $400 For just one light.
@@AnthonyJ350 I actually figured it out. I used a plug and play resistor. It didn't have a wire ran for the running light. That's what the issue was. I just went and used one from AutoZone. It's perfect now.
Too bad absolutely no information about the brightness of led bulbs. There a ton of led bulb variations .....and I am NOT talking about the base. There are "running lights" ....which require a specific "brightness" range (lumens). Brake lights, which require a different brightness (lumens) and back up lights. -------------------- Turn signals can cause problems due to the electrical circuitry. ----------------------------------- "RAPID RESPONSE" OF THE LIGHT BULBS IS THE MOST LEAST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF THESE BULBS.

styldsteel1 Are you 85?? you sound like a old fart. Plenty of people always say oh I couldn't see your turn signal or brake lights. We didn't have LEDs for the past 100 plus years to use. Now we do. They do the job with less power better and last longer and are brighter.

Your actual video leaves out a critical part in that you mention nothing of needing resistors to correct hyper-flashing.
BakerOne Did you check the "cards" in the top right hand corner where youtube suggests other videos? Cause there is a load resistor video there. *mic drop*
In my opinion hyper flashing looks a lot better than the slower flashing
Not on all applications.. on some vehicles you can put in a LED flasher relay to avoid using load resistors.
Why is hyperflashing a bad thing?
@@AnthonyJ350 no one reads that crap..video is misinformation.
This should become standard procedure in replacing tail light bulbs.
Thanks for the comment!
Philips Extreme Ultinons (red for brake, amber for signal) are my picks.
Nice
In Europe, rear turn signals must be amber by law. So no options here for a red one.
When running these LED's, is it better to run a load resistor or an aftermarket turn signal flasher?
I prefer load resistors that way I'm not dependant on one part to make the whole system work. That's just my preference.
How long do those load resistors last?

GrnArrow092 Nice good job! Ya turn signals are more work to do.
You can change the side indicators no problem, you can only replace the front or back but not both without getting the hyper flash issues.
Did you add flush mounted auxiliary lights to the bumpers or was that actual stock?
I added them in. Here's the install video th-cam.com/video/nGw91iqYVew/w-d-xo.html

Marker lights have a different intensity than brake. You also have a 3rd brake that illuminates only when you brake.

You might need to install load resistors for your upgraded bulbs.
I have the same truck on this video, do I need load resistors if I only put led signal bulbs on the rear? I didn’t see any in this video.
Alberto Cruz Yes you will. I have them tucked away mounted to metal. They get hot.
Thank you 👍🏼

Peter Pantalone III You'll either have to buy a new tail light or take that one apart and custom install an LED strip into the housing.
Thank you Anthony J350.
Where can I get these led ?
Nice video. Did you have to install any resistor or flasher for the turn signals? They seem faster but in a good way.
RC4X4 There are load resistors installed in each corner
They are faster because LEDs light up instantly whereas incandesent bulbs or halogen ones do not they take 0.5 seconds for the filament to warm up enough to get full brightness.
Nice i want these bulbs for my gmc sierra... u mind telling me the name of them so i can buy them thnks
They Sylvania replacement LEDs
If your so worried about safety put 99-02 chevy / 99-07 gmc tails in. They have the amber turns that you want.
Thought about it, but it doesn't have the corner light. I love how my bottom marker light alternates with the signal.
I keep seeing and hearing about load resistors..... wouldn't using an LED flasher relay in place of the factory flasher relay be more simpler?
It's an alternative but might not work for all vehicles. Especially ones where the BCM is controlling the lights.
I just attempted to put LED bulbs in the rear brake/tail lights and turn signals on my 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I didn't change the front turn signal lights out with LED.

Looks like you need to add Load Resisters to your circuit..a Fairly common thing with LED bulbs.
It's easier to replace the flasher relay.
No flasher relay on CANBUS systems
Did you put a load resistor in or a CANBUS compatible LED bulb?
What are this led bulbs named and where can i get them??
I was hoping to see the difference in the back up lighting.. for led...
It's a bright white
I did notice that your top stop light was amber color yet has a red lens as the light below it.
Rondo Schiavoni could be the way the camera is picking it up. It's red though.

Do I need resistors for brake lights
I know for my turn signals I do but I don’t know about brake light
Not for brake lights you won't
You can get different colors on all the bulbs too so if you want blue head lights you can. Dunno how fast you'd get pulled over tho
I don't think it's worth changing the colour like that just for looks and less performance.
Some end up looking pink tho have you seen that before?
I have. When you put a white LED behind a red lense.
Do you have any videos going over how to install a load resistor for cars with a CANBUS system and cause the LED"s to hyperflash?
mraccord92 Currently no. I have a friend with a 2015 Ram we might start playing with so stay tuned.
I just want everyone to know that if your signal isn't working or brake just flip the bulb. Like turn it 90 degrees
Thanks for the tip!
installed led turn signal bulbs in front and rear. now they flash twice as fast like one bulb is out. how do i slow them down?

Look into Sylvania LED bulbs for the rear. Remember you'll need load resistors for the signals.
I use white signal lights
As long as it's legal in your area.
All my lights just stay on and blinkers don't work when I try LED bulbs on a tahoe
Did you install load resistors? th-cam.com/video/P-4RyNSl-ko/w-d-xo.html
I did this but it does not work on my signal why do I need to run a load resistor
It adds resistance to the bulb because it draws so low in current (in that model of truck, you can just change the flasher).
What you mean my break light and signal are the same bulb
I'm having issues getting the signal to flash
On some vehicles, it can be. If one is brake and the other is signal, you would have to tap into the wire that activates the signal only.
To make the circuit flash so it doesn't think the bulb is burnt out.
do you have to have a resistor for the back lights?
Brady Kice Yes this truck already has them. Sorry I didn't mention it, I have another video specifically for hyperflash.
