AUTOLUMINATION BEWARE!!

[sleey0]

Seems they have had some crappy batches from china and now are claiming "installer error"

Like, yeah, umm installing a festoon is REAL complicated. :thumbdown:

You have been warned. Today I got set # 2 from the same batch and this is what happened.

They were hesitant to help the first time but now forget it. "INSTALLER ISSUE" my ass.

No refund. No help. No exchange (product cost me $25 each and prolly 79 cents from the dist in China)

If I can change my own headlights and wire them up and set up full speaker systems with head units - they are crazy.

Check the pics. There is only 1 way to put these in. And, yes, I did it correctly lol

I HIGHLY REC SUPERBRIGHT OR HILEDS - USE AUTOLUM AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Yikes!

ouch

Did you have it in the dome light or in the map lights?

when you put up the post of your new interior lights i wanted to say BEWARE but i guess you found out the hard way!!!!! GARAGE1217 is the way to go iof you want decent prices and NON OUTRAGOUS shipping.....

I get mine from Superbright. Oh wait....my dome is a cluster I got from eBay. Now I need to look at some records to see exactly where I got it!

[ross sez]

I've had to return a couple sets of LEDs from ebay so far. One set of 4 I received... none of the lights had a matching light color. And the second set just didn't work. Fortunately each of the sellers accepted a return and refunded my money (from the U.S, I won't order out of the US on ebay).

One of those sets actually just got returned to me in the mail b/c I didn't include enough postage. Still got the refund :)

why are there three wires? isn't it just on and off? :iono:

the yellow wire is the remote blinker fluid sensor wire. :bellyroll::bellyroll:


sorry, couldn't resist.


I noticed that there seems to be a ground and then a L/H so perhaps low and high for duality? :iono:

[chrisj]

My cluster had just 2 thin wires going to a various connectors.

[cali yaris]

I'd like to see the other side. If it's an LED array, like for dome or map light, it should be just two wires, right?

[sleey0]

It is a pic of two 45 SMD LED array boards. I wanted it BRIGHT so I was going to put 90 LEDs in there but there boards are shit.

I have no idea why there are 3 wires.

Avoid them at all costs. He acts like he did me a favor last time when a 1W led off a 6 led panel didn't work.

Terrible customer service.

Rockland- thanks for the garage217 tip.

Those boards were 25 bucks EACH. So I am out $50.

Hey, at leat the rear one didn't exploded but I may change it anyway just in case lol.

I've had issues with Autolumination as well. Not burning like that, but just poor, dim bulbs and bulbs that die out and/or flicker way earlier than they should.

I switched my entire interior to LEDs from http://www.v-leds.com/

Excellent service and quality.

[Red Horse]

Wow! I thought Autolumination service is norma,l cause I brought 2 pairs of led for my turn signal lights and they shiped it separately so 2 box came at my door step.
