Wing led, How do i fix Options

Wing led stopped wrki.g how.do i fix.it and are there any clear ones out there

I'd say that there's something wrong with your wiring or maybe you've got a blown fuse. LEDs are usually in parallel, so if one goes out the rest are still working.

**cough** in series not parallel**cough**cough**

How come you see third lights where only one or two LEDs in the middle aren't working?
I'm not familiar with this specific wing brake light, but putting something as a row of LEDs, used as a brake indicator, in series would be just dumb...

They are wired either in parallel( for a few large LEDs) or both series and parallel for arrays with a lot of LEDs. Most importantly each LED consumes 2-4 volts of electricity so at 12 volts you cant run more than 3 - 5 leds in series before they start running out of power.

Mine has 97 leds, it has 39 circuits( composed of 2 - 3 leds in SERIES) connected in parallel across a common power and ground.

Notice the small blue resistors are for the vertical rows of 3 leds in series and the large tan resistors are for the short 2 led circuits in between.
