Valenti Tail Lights

So I got my Valenti tail lights yesterday. I tried to install them today but I ran into some problems. The lights aren't synced in with each other. The hazards and turning signals work perfectly but the brake lights don't turn on completely. I tried to turn on my lights too and the back lights work partially. What do I do? Do I need a new relay for it? I know the TOMS tail lights needs one. I hope this makes sense.

When you mean partially, it's as if some of the LEDs aren't lighting up? It was a common valenti issue, I'd talk to the place you bought it from and get it replaced.

Answer this

Where did you buy it from?
Does it say made in taiwan?
How many plugs are there?
Could you take picture of your tails
Can you also take picture of the plugs + wiring.

Relays are usually required for hyper flashing.
Valenti should be plug and play Unless it's "jdm" spec

So they are made in Taiwan. And here are some pics for you guys. Maybe the wiring is wrong. Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1442544204.561315.jpg

When you say synced, do you mean they do not work simultaneously, and, the brake light(s) are they flashing on while not applying brakes and turning off when you are indeed on the brake pedal? I have Valenti as well, easily the fastest thing I've installed in a long time (my 95 integra never made anything easy) and so far, no issues with the tail lights. If you haven't figured it out and want a pic of the wiring to make sure they didn't fudge it up in factory, let me know.
