Patrick - LED Taillight problems

In my case, as I was checking all the connections, I heard the two distinctive "clicks" as the pins locked into place. I think it is best to check these connections with the connectors unplugged. My apologies if this has already been addressed - this has become quite a long thread!

Good luck tracking this down.

Hey Kevin - yes, this is a long thread. I think I should re-title it; "How to create a problem where none existed before and successfully fix it in 12 pages or less".

That's my fall back plan - I don't have to run LEDs. I can be satisfied with a 100% functioning filiment light system. I am going to look over the connection blocks closely again. I think I checked all the pins at the time of assembly but it's been a couple of years. And also match up the wires on each side, although I spent a week doing that during installation.

I guess another fall back is just to drive with my lights on all the time. I considered that but I'm afraid I would forget to turn them on sometime and the first time I signaled for a turn everyone would think I was declaring an emergency.
