Valenti Tailight Rewiring
 
Ok so long story short I hate the way my indicators look on my Valenti taillights.

My guy accidentally ordered the JDM ones, so my brake lights were yellow (triggered the indicator) and my indicator was flashing red (triggering night time lights)

Does anyone know if it's possible to wire the indicator (yellow) to the outer light (red)?

This was actually the case out of the box, but the fuse only looks like it can fit one wire.

There are 4 fuses in total.

I think you can do something called soldering? Not to familiar with that though, and if it will even work.

Thanks

I think you've got your wires crossed.. the query is appearing as 3 separate posts..

Yeah i tried uploading on wifi a few times didnt work. Turned my data on, and they all uploaded. Cant even delete them on the latest update for the Tapatalk app -.- but yo if I dont think I can rewire it, because one wire perfectly fits into the fuse. There is no way two of them will fit

There's also a subforum for this. Posting in general when there is a specific place in here for the specific question you asked won't help you as well.

You need to repin the harness.

My phone is acting up, search youtube for repinning frs tail lights

coconutboy 07-07-2019 03:16 PM

I actually did repin the harness because they were wired backward when I got it. I want two cables in one input

Well then, just "piggy back" the wire coming out of the one inlet/outlet - ;)

Just strip a section of insulation from the wire coming out of the plug, then wrap the other wire around it. Then tape the splice up with electrical tape.

Will it work? :iono: I have no idea of what you're trying to do?

I think the OP is trying to get the amber light to behave like the red light and the red light to behave like the amber light.


If I was in his shoes I would ensure that my shoes had a think rubber sole and I would exchange the JDM lights for what works in your country..

Not possible without a lot of extra work involving blocking diodes and extra wiring. Not something i would recommend for someone not sure what soldering is.

Just to clarify I wanted my lights to do the following

Night time lights: red outline on lights

Indicator: red outline on lights that would flash as an indicator

Brake lights: OEM

You may be right. It just looks tacky to me tbh. I think I'll either have to ask a specialist and show it to them in person or get someone to do it for me. Just wanted to know if someone has done it before
