Installed side markers now brake/turning/sidemarkets lights dont work! HELP! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Danny · 11-27-2013, 10:33 PM

I installed my helix side markers just now, after installing one i tested it and it worked. Then when putting the second one it didn't light up. Now even my turning signal lights along with my brake lights wont even turn on. Basically when switching the first set of lights on none of them turn on. Could anyone help please? Thank you.

Check your fuses yet?

Just in case you don't know, the owners manual shows which fuses control which circuits. There are two fuse blocks, one under the hood and a smaller one under the dash. Spare fuses and a fuse puller can be found in the fuse box under the hood.

I hope you get er fixed.

I checked my turning signal and brake lights and they were both good, but the side marker lights were not labeled in the manual. Which is where the problem originated from since when i put the second one in, it stopped working.

Flip the LED bulb around? Happened to me. Second led wasn't working so I flipped it and it started working.

Did you try hooking up the original parts to see if they worked properly after encountering the problem?

1. Take led bulb out and replace with OEM if it works then you may have shorted the fuse
2. Put led bulb back in and flip it around if it doesn't go on
3. If neither the fuse is popped and led doesn't go on and stock then you have a bigger problem
