    Okay, I thought someone had already gone thru this, but I've been searching for the past hour or so and can't seem to find it.

    I used to have the old 2017 halogen headlights w/o the DRL's. I upgraded to the 2018 LED headlights and also installed the NSV bar. I ended out upgrading the blinkers to Headlight Revolution's LED blinkers, but one of them went out. So I bought the V6 Triton's from VLEDS to see if they were any brighter.

    However, I'm having some weird issues with how they're actually functioning. I had to make a video explaining it. BTW, it doesn't matter if the pink and purple wires are switched, the behavior is the same. Also, if I flat out leave the purple wire unplugged (from the middle slot), the blinkers don't work at all.

    Anyone remember how this one got fixed (assuming it has)? @iHacker @boardude @BlueBottle

    I'm waiting to hear back from VLEDS about it as well.

    Well, that was fast. VLEDS got back and suggested pink/white/purple. Voila! All good now.

    Glad you figured it out quick.

    I’m running 3156CK vled tritons. Since I am using the 3156 specific bulb there was no reason for me to repin my signals. I’m pretty sure that was your problem.

    Thanks, yeah same here now. I had to repin from the HR's since they were running the 7440's. Since these V6's can use the original adapters I had to switch the pins back and just forgot what I had done lol.

    Yes that’s the stock configuration so you probably have the old kind of bulb 3157CK and don’t have to switch pins

    Sorry for the delay, glad you figured out the problem
