Installing LED stoplights?

[31 Model A]

Got them in, did not cut any wire, brake light left works great, break light right does not work. Thought maybe I had cut the jumper red wire, took it back off, no cut, put the old bulbs back in, brake light still doesn't work. Put LED back on, running light left side works, gets brighter when brake is applied. Right side...nothing, no running nor stop.

Sounds like its time to get out the volt meter or test light. Once you the right side is working, I think you'll probably want to cut the red jumper.

If you decide to hook up signals, that'll be fun. But, we'll get them working too.

I decided to go with Logo-Lites. I see many A owners have them and they look OK. I got the lights bolted to the bumpers today, no wiring yet. Maybe tomorrow.

I'll do some reading tonight in my A books about tail lights.

-10 to -20 here tomorrow wind chill..................Brrrrr!!!
