This is a continuation from another topic, but it's a bit different now, hence re-posting!
I managed to get the spoiler LED brake light working, BUT: I found one of the wires to the spoiler brake LED had been cut, so I just re-connected it, and the LED started working again. Only problem is that as soon as I hit the brake pedal after starting the car, the rear brake light "bulb out" warning light comes on in the dash, and stays on until I turn off the ignition. It is quite a bright orange light, particularly when you're driving at night, and I am beginning to understand why the previous owner cut the wire! Mind you, as long as I know the lights are actually working, and that the wiring harness isn't going to melt or anything, I can probably live with it. Can anyone put my mind at rest that it's ok? Can't help thinking that a resistor or something might help the situation though. The LED is wired in parallel to the bootlid brake light, rather than in series, so maybe the lower overall resistance of the circuit is triggering the diagnostics? Ah, these Celicas are just too clever by half, wish I could tell it to ignore it! |
