Default Driver side parking lights no power

This came in the mail today:


was only going to install everything on the driver side to compare to the passenger side, well something went wrong.

the parking lights are not coming on, checked at the plug and no power, the original bulbs work as i have tested them from side to side.

I had installed one of the parking light leds along with the reverse led and the light turned off and now the driver side parking lights wont come on front or back.

all the fuses have continuity, about to check them all one by one.

can you reset the bcm?



BTW the headlight bulb is bright!

Third brake light is also out - no power to it.

All fuses are good in the cab and in the engine bay.
Cleaned the switch stalk and nothing changed.

Looked through quite a few threads and no answer for the people whom had the same symptoms so I guess to the indy shop it goes.

You created and answered your own thread before giving anyone time to chime in. You rock Juan. Did you keep any of the new LED's in? Pics please.

When are you installing the locker?

i have seriously been freaking out about it as all the fuses were good tested 4 times with two different volt meters and visually inspecting them once.

most people gave up and re wired the truck and i did not want to do it, i came across a thread where they pulled the glove box bulb and everything was fine, well that was not the case for me so angrily i pulled the fuse only to have it burn on me on the way out.

replaced it walked passed the front of the truck to grab a drink and i stared at the left and right city lights just glowing...

not sure why it worked but it sure beats calling the indy to have it looked at.

the front has one led light, waiting for the second one to come in to give it a better chance. in the pictures you can see the old bulb better but what i can see is totally different.

the rear locker is on its way along with a new to me tcase-

I have heard more than 1 horror story with installing LED lights. I like the look but the one thing my disco doesn't have is an electrical problem and I'd like to keep it that way.

Did you give up on trying to fix the low range and decide to just get another T-Case?

I had read some but figured meh what the heck... well yeah....

I left the reverse projector bulbs in, they seem to work fine.

Terheelrover, https://www.facebook.com/piedmontrov...f=ts&ref=br_tf had a sale on tcases, 50% off tcase and it was a deal i couldnt pass up seeing as how locals want 400+

here is his ebay items in TARHEEL ROVER PARTS store on eBay!

i buy stuff from him and northdallasimports when i am not going to the major retailers or junk yards
