Where is this
red wire located? Is that on the harness side or headlight side of the wiring harness connection for the headlights? Mine has a white wire going from the harness to the blinker bulb; that was the only one that I could find a blinker signal on.
Tapping into that white wire (and the green parking light wire) got my sidemarkers to functions perfectly as turn signals when I tested with the stock bulbs installed in the turn signal sockets (smaller, easier to dangle in the engine bay). When I switched back to my LED turn signal bulbs, they were dimly illuminated with the parking lights (and got brighter as turn signals). I found ~+7VDC present at the turn signal socket with driving lights on - which I guess isn't enough to light up the stock bulbs but is enough for the LEDs.
Did I tap the wrong wire(s), or does this not work properly on a BRZ with LED turn signal bulbs? I'd really like to get this to work (as I hate that my turn signals aren't visible from the side), but reverted back to the stock setup for now.
Thanks for any input you guys can provide.
