Who knows how the sidemarkers are REALLY wired on overseas Hondas?

 

I am pretty sure the turn signals and sidemarkers turn on only when you signal.

i was thinking the same thing, but not from what i see on the roads today. 9 guys out of 10 have them on with the parking lights...

 

That's because they choose it like that, because they like it lit up with the parking lights, it helps on the road better then having them off and only when signaling.

 

They are only blinkers. They are not supposed to come on as parking lights.

The real way they have it set up in Japan, I believe is they are only use when signaled. They do not / are not suppose to come on with parking lights.

They might not all do it by choice...is because maybe they do not know how to wire it where it doesn't stay on at all times.

I may be wrong..but I'll go research.

okay, lets not turn this into a big argument.

can someone find a wiring diagram? or who has a mAd tIIte JDM rhd genuine imported car that can verify this...

 

Guys lets not be stupid here. SHOW me a picture of car from Japan cruising down the street NOT signaling with his sidemarkers on. i DEFY you to find a picture of this.

THEY ONLY COME ON WITH YOUR SIGNAL.

and they should blink at the same time as your signal, they should not alternate between side marker/signal....they both flash at the same time.

/end of argument.
