LED tail light help
« on: May 04, 2010, 02:47:31 PM »
I have a LED tail/brake light (3 wire) that im trying to hook up.
Will i need a resistor or anything? Or is that only for turn signals?

Is there a way to tell using volt meter?

Sounds like it is a plug-n-play unit.

Plug it in and see if it works, sounds like it probably already wired with the proper resistors already.
