Re: Alternating/Sequential Taillights

I'm almost regretting inventing this mod, as it MAY wreak havoc with your LED lamps (if you have them) and digital HVAC (if you have one). Otherwise, it worked just fine with bulbs and manual controls. If problems arise, you may have grounding issues elsewhere in the car, which would not normally arise if the rear lights were not modded.
 
Re: Alternating/Sequential Taillights

What kind of havoc are we talking about here? Especially on the climate control, as I would think most folks here have it!
 
Re: Alternating/Sequential Taillights

Apparently, under unknown circumstances, the backlighting in the HVAC will change brightness with the turn signals. Nobody to date has taken the time to diagnose. I am unable to do it myself, as I have analog controls in all my cars.
 


Re: Alternating/Sequential Taillights

cool mod, does it only do that when the blinker is on ? or when the brake is on ?
 
Re: Alternating/Sequential Taillights

when ur lights are on... they are alternating...

when ur lights are off... they both blink...

when u brake, they both light up, but do not alternate
 
Re: Alternating/Sequential Taillights []

go outside and turn ur blinkers on, then turn your lights on..

now what the video... the small unused 194 bulb now blinks with the turn/brakes without lights on, and with lights on, it alternates with the turn signal
 


who said anythign about cool? i just like that it utilizes that basically wasted 194 bulb... but thanks for the positive comment?
 


would i be able to use this method for my 2005 GP? i want to have a use for my upper lights since they stay on and they act like the 194 bulb
