Hello.
I recently bought a set of Feint Lighting LED taillights for my tC.
They are awesome and top notch quality, however.. I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a question I have?

When you're driving during the day.. everything is fine, the lights come on no problem.

When you're driving at night.. the normal brake lights come on as a running light.. but when you press on the brakes.. they dont become brighter.. they in fact seem to get dimmer because the 3rd brake light is coming on..

I was wondering if there was any way to remedy this problem? My biggest concern is putting my brakes on and the person behind me doesnt realize I am, and slams into the back of me... any info would be GREATLY apprieciated!!

Thank you.

 

email them. this happened to Neothin

 

I would have to say it is either an install issue or they really arent "top notch quality", which usually infers that they work

I would get in touch with them soon, since you are illegal without properly working brake lights

 

email them!

 

Thanks for the ideas guys.. I have already emailed them ( about 3 days ago )
and Engifineer, lol , they are top-notch besides the fact that they dont work.......lol.

 

well post back when u find out what was wrong because i was considering getting these but ill wait to you your problem fixed. Keep us updated

 

If it is indeed the problem Neothin had, it is remediable, and shouldn't stop you from getting them. I am eventually (I got a long list )

 

i thought in neothins post the dude thad to fly out to fix it... he had missed a wire or somthing.. search for his name and see what ya get.. he had a thread on them...

but better put your stockers back in b4 you have to wear a neck brace...

 

??????????^^^^^^^^^

 

^^^he said that for he might have to wear a neck brace after he gets hit from the back from a driver that didnt stop in time due to the faulty brake lights.

 

watching.

 

That's not good at all. I would not feel comfortable driving with a brake lights that do not work. Not to mention, you can earn yourself a pretty fat ticket. put your stock back on asap.

 

Unless you're planning on driving across the country to get these installed at their facilities, you cannot get them sent to you any longer. Maybe they had this happen to more than one person. I was considering getting these 2 months ago but lost interest after I heard that some of these tail lights had the hyperblink.

 

As soon as I find out anything, ill let you all know...
thanks for the comments and suggestions everyone

 

[quote="FLEA"]if you dont knwo what causes hyperblink, you must live in a box. simple load resistor and your good. takes 2min to install..

 

wait he doesnt ship them anymore??? that dont sound right to me
