  • Right hand parker light keeps blowing

    Like the title say, the right hand side headlight parker light keeps blowing. They are ebay error free led lights but the left hand side one has been running for maybe 5 months, and in that time I have replaced the right one 3 times.

    Does anyone know what could be causing this?
    Any help is much appreciated.

    Are bold sport leds any better then ebay ones?

    Check the terminals in the socket.

    You may need to adjust them closer together.

      I think one of the wires seems like it's a bit loose, it looks like it's pooping out a bit.. could that be causing it.. I'll take a photo of it tomorrow.

        Certainly wouldn't be doing it any favours.

          So I thought that it blew, I had a look today and this is what I found.



          The LED parker snapped in half and fell into the headlight.

          Now how do I get it out? Lol

            Yep, that'l do it...cheap LED? Maybe poke a cable tie with a bit of chewy or something sticky on the end to catch it after removing the main globe to get in there easier?
