Default Halo LED Problem

I have a problem with one of my LED Halo mod tail lights. The inside LEDs does not come on when I press the brake pedal or put on the turn signal anymore. The oval LED ring is working fine.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Have you checked for a broken wire on the taillight side. There is one wire that has the turn and brake signal and another that has the halo (taillight) on it.

If the above is not the case, then a component on the circuit board is damaged.

Either way the housing needs to be opened to fix it.

Sounds like a good option.

Try plugging in the connector to the socket backwards. Sometimes this works.
