okay, has anyone had any problems with these? One of my mirrors works, the other one doesn't. The one mirror that does work, only 3 of the 5 LED's are lighting up. I've redid the wirring on both mirrors, resoldered the connections, and still no luck. Have anyone else had problems with these?
yes, I have the smae problem with my mirrors. they choose when they want to work. not liking it so I believe I am taking them off and selling them for cheap...

did you try switching the ground and hot wire? I had that issue but i can't recall how I fixed it.. also which wires are you tapping into for the leds? front turns? rear?
Mike Jones..... Who?
i'm tapping into the ones connected to the corner signals up front. Blue wire to Blue wire, red wire to dark brown wire, and black wire to body.
When did this happen?
As soon as you wired it up or after some rain hit them?
When I had mine, first thing I did was take some clear sealant and go around the edges.
Helped out a lot.

Remember....syringes go in the RED waste basket.
mine do the same thing but when i turn the signal on all 5 LEDS light u[p but when just hte lights are on with my parking lights only 3 or 4 will light up.

Mine did that, too...I took them back and exchanged them for another set, and guess what? They did the SAME thing...LOL That's why I don't have them now. But they sure are pretty when they do work, aren't they? Cheap APC stuff...

Hmm maybe I should have used the white wire.
I had cascading 5 led's. Or maybe it was four because the current didn't last long enough.
And I only hoolked up two of the three wires.
Ground and the blue one.
But doesn't having those lights on full time when driving illegal in some form?
Not sure on that.
Try just hooking up a ground and one of the other wires.

they're effin junk. i finally gave up and just cut the damn wires off of mine.
Neutiquam erro.
Mine do the same......expecially when it rains. I hate it expecially at a show when they don't what to work, but if you leave them on for 5 mins, all of them will come on. I think it has to do with letting them heat up....it works for me. But I think I might change them out.

hey,
I got m3 blinkers mirrors on my car. My mirros both quit lighting up so i order i had my brother grab me a new circuit board from work and ordered new l.e.d.s online. You can easily take those mirrors apart and have access to the led boards inside and check them with a volt meter or look at them to tell if there burnt or not.
it costed me $6 to fix both my mirrors and there bright as can be now.
ive heard of alot of people taking them aparts and using new led's
anyone wanna write up a howto for changing the LED's?
^^ a write up on changing the LEDS would be great!!!
anybody? i was thinking of covering over the blinkers, repainting them, and then just leaving them as NON LED mirrors...
I bought my mirrors like 5 months ago and I could never get the driver side to light all 5 leds up but when the door was half open thats the only time they all lit up. Now only a few light up on each one...Someone really needs to write something up on how to change out the leds.
does anyone have better luck with the erebuni mirrors?

EXACTLY what I did too!
Anything APC is CRAP, end of story...

Hmm, I would be interested in a how-to disassemble these mirrors too...

just cut all the wires off...will probably go back to stock mirrors since these are pissing me off.
