New Led Bulbs Won’t Work, But Work In A T5.1

[Mbr_tattoist]

So ordered main light and side light set, off eBay and 2 drl leds. Once fitted won’t work?
Tried in mates 5.1 the bulbs are fine?
So for the t6 do they have to be certain bulbs or does something g else need to be done also no faults popped up ?
Thanks

You might need to turn the bulb round or swap the wire over.

Some of the LEDs are polarity sensitive..

Swap the wires in the lamp holder

Swap the wires in the lamp holder

for each light?
I bought drl and main+side

No just the DRLs that are often affected by this as the wires are the same colour so it seems pot luck which way round the polarity is from factory

none worked when put in, not the main or side, if you swop the wires round do you not end up with warnings coming up

It’s only the DRLs I have encountered the reverse polarity issue with (which is quite common)

So if the reverse polarity is done on the drl, will the other

so if the polarity is reversed on the drls, then will this make the other bulbs work? As when connected none worked

I doubt it they are wired separately but it will be down to the internal wiring of the headlight so cant be sure either way ?
