Another inop winjet DRL led
Hello,
I am curious how many of you have had issues with the winjet led DRL going inop/stop working??? Mine just failed after 9 months and i am debating whether or not its worth it to order another set as Winjet will not warranty or sell me one headlamp. Fyi i had the drl mod as well |

Oh yeah, bad experience with those. I'm on my third set. The first two had an LED strip quit shortly after installation so they shipped replacements. It appears they have acknowledged there is a design problem. The new set has a small component they called a regulator. It is a little white box in-line with one of the wires to the LED. When my second set failed, they asked if I had this on mine or not. They shipped a replacement set that included it.
So maybe there's hope these will last. If not, I'm done with any Winjet products. I had QA issues with the taillights too.
