now they aren't working. just wondering if this could be a fuse, and what size fuse that would be (and where the fuse box is??)
they are connected in series
thanks
It is one of the blue ones, 15A? Fuse box is this small box, 1x2x3 on the throttle side. I blew mine when I did my tail install because I tried to test it before I had everything plugged in.
sorry... fuse box is around the frame area. Can't remember exactly, but location is in your manual if you need exact
Fuse #2, under the seat on the right side. If your tail light is working it is not the fuse. Your ownre's manual has the fuse box location and wiring diagram in it . No manual? Download here:

LEDs are directional... try flipping it the other way and see if it works then.

Earlier I must have looked at something else. with directional bulbs, that would be replacing a stock with an LED, you have to make sure it goes in the right way. From that I see on that ebay page, I am not sure. Did you test them before you installed them? If so how do you have them hooked up?
Fuses are in a black plastic container about 3" x 1" x 1" on right side, just inside the frame. I know because my headlight fuse blew 3 times ;D. I was recently the proud recipient of a new wiring harness from DNA. 1 wk now with functional electrics [thumbsup]
