Different headlight marker/amber light wirings?


Recommended Posts

Posted

So i went to an audio shop to install my tow mirrors and everything I wanted works...to an extent. I requested that they wire the front ambers as BOTH marker and turn signals and it works.....ONLY if you manually turn on the headlights (turning the light nob all the way to the right). I usually keep it on Auto so now the marker lights do not stay on as they are supposed to, the ambers only come on when I signal or hazard, no constant amber marker light. Also when you unlock the car, the ambers blink twice indicating unlock but do not stay on like the headlight ambers do. Same with locking, ambers blink once but do not stay on. So is there a different wire or what?

As far as I know the amber lights on the Headlights only turn on when is dark or like you said when you turn the knob to the right, they might have tap into that. In order for the ones on the mirror to work always and then with turn signal to flash you would need to power sources going to it, a constant always on and then tap into the turn signal and add a diode I believe .
