Tail light socket info needed..... Reply #60 – December 01, 2013, 07:16:33 PM Like flylear45 said with the red wire. My instructions were wrong. The Green coming out of the module is used to disable the brake light burst. The red on the sequencer is the power. That is why it is spliced onto the first socket, as that light is not actually sequenced, it comes on when the turn signal flasher tells it to and it stays on, then the sequencer adds the other two lamps in succession. Then they all go out when the flasher blinks, and it starts over again.I apologize for the confusion. Quote Selected

We went down the same false trail. LOL You , me , and hopefully Vinnie all have it knocked now! Quote Selected

I like the Scoth-lock just fine for that inner connection to the existing LG/O wire, but would use butt splices on the other two (white and blue0 and on the brown to brown and black to black on the middle. Personal preference.I think you are going to be fine on this.Print out the post 26 and take it with you. I'll also PM my phone number for you in case you get stuck tomorrow. Just call me.

Tail light socket info needed..... Reply #64 – December 01, 2013, 07:36:27 PM O.K., first of all, I was on no trail. You may have been wrong, but at least you had some direction. I was flittering about like a monkey on a hot plate. Quote Selected

Tail light socket info needed..... Reply #67 – December 01, 2013, 07:56:34 PM Quote from: vinnietbird;425018I have the harness that is going into the trunk right here, so I can see the colors and where to splice. My factory harness has some bad wires, so, i got this one from a minty car at the boneyard and will splice it into the main trunk harness tomorrow or Monday (only seven wires to match up).And I have to add a light sockets to the inner most brake lights.I just saw this. It looks like the harness you are holding is a non system sentry harness if it has two LG/O on the outer left and two O/LB wires on the outer right. They have differences that you don't want to get into if that's the case. Just use the one you have on the car until you can get a proper harness or you are going to lose the functionality of the lamp out feature. Quote Selected

Tail light socket info needed..... Reply #74 – December 02, 2013, 05:56:13 AM These are two separate modules that control left and right independently from one another.So, everything is the same on the right except the colors on the turn/stop wire that you will cut/splice in to. In post 26, substitute O/LB for LG/O and repeat the process. Quote Selected
