Ok so im not new to the sidemarker install.I've done it many times with an EK and only once with an EG.Well i installed the EK9 sidemarkers in my EG casue i liked how big they were.No problem.Wired m up now i have a 3-4 minute delay in my parking lights,cluster lights and taillights.Ive put bigger fuses in those spots and even the radio spot to see if i could isolate the issue to a certain spot.I've come up with no luck just seeing if anyone else has run into this problem before? its a two wire sidemarker.I now have it hooked up to ground and the red/black wire on my corner lights.Any help is appriciated.

Describe in detail how you have the lights wired up. A circuit diagram would be best.

Also, don't put bigger fuses than the rated ones for a slot! That's just asking for trouble (as in, fire) and it's never the answer!

Basically i have a two wire sidemarker.I have a white and a black wire coming from the lamp.White i think would be positive which is now plugged into the green wire on the corner light.The black one which i think is ground goes to the black wire on the corner thats how i have it now.I put a bigger fuse in those spots so it would handle it.Ive seen them blow because it wasn't big enough.I went up i think 5/10 more than what was in there.

The turn signal power wires are Grn/Yel or Grn/Red whereas the parking light power wires are Red/Blk.

Always install only the proper sized fuse because otherwise you risk a dangerous fire and burned up wires.

Yeah i have it setup on Green/yellow and black for ground.

Do you understand that this^ means that your sidemarkers are spliced into the turn signal circuit?

Brycen

i do.All the DIY say that is how they have it setup.is there another way of doing? i searched and that's all i could come up with is those wirring diagrams.
