I don't know where this topic should be posted so I will post it here because it's an appearance thing.

My sidemarkers on my EJ1 light up when I turn the turn signals on but I want them on when the running lights are on. Where do I need to change the wiring.

Also I searched "side marker" and found no information on this.

Get a probe and test the power in each corner light plug. Place it on each 'pin' in the socket, and when you find which wire has power going to it with the running lights on, wire the sidemarkers into that wire.

 

Awesome. Thank you.

I know. Thanks. I like the way it looks better when they are on at night.

 

splice the power wire from the sidemarker into the red/black wire in the corner light instead of the green/black wire it's spliced to now

 

Will do. Thanks

 

That **** worked like a charm. Thanks guys.

 

are they gonna blink still tho?

 

yea they do they switch off when the others blink on. I personally like it a lot better.

 

****. Now my left front corner light is dimmer and when I put the turn signal on it flashes way fast. The other side is fine though.

 

help left front turn signal still fucked up.

 

I replaced the light and it is still doing it help

 

I have pix of this setup on my old EM1, I'll post one if you want.

I think they look fine as running lights... Mine were wired to turn on instead of the parking lights, with the city lights on as well... And they blinked alternating with the turn signals in the headlights...

 

Yea I got them wired up just fine but now the left front corner light is dimmer and blinks way fast the left side is fine. Some one please help. Thanks.

 

blown fuse most likely... check them out.

 

i DID. The light still lights up and both the side markers light up its just the left front one is dimmer and when I turn on the left turn signal it blinks way fast. I checked the fuse and it seemed fine.

 

Keep them that way. Thats the way side markers are suppose to be. Having them on when your running lights are on looks lame imo.

 

God damn it no one wants to help me with my tech problem all they want to do is tell me how to make a stock japanese car. expletive this. I'll figure it out myself.
