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** -------------------- white 1997 Celica GT***FOR SALE

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... -------------------- |

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... I kindof got mixed up, I use both just like BMW, I do parallel rows of about 3 leds in series, but ive used just parallel, too like on the cluster of my GT, and on the turn signals of my ST and they lasted as long as I had the car(over 2 years) and not a single one burnt I'd say that there's something wrong with your wiring or maybe you've got a blown fuse.

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. ![]() ![]() DAMN! I would love to see a picture of that monster turned on! -------------------- white 1997 Celica GT***FOR SALE
