    Led conversion (running/turn signals)

    So what do you suggest to counter that? I've tried other 194 leds and it's still not quite right

    Heres the video of MY truck.

    Led conversion (running/turn signals)

    I'll upload the video to YouTube and share the link. Idk how to share videos on this forum.

    It was my truck, lol

    Led conversion (running/turn signals)

    With leds in the front 1157 sockets, 194 removed, I have .4v at the blue wire (not enought to be a problem). With the 194 led in, I have 11v at the blue wire. 12v at the battery.

    Led conversion (running/turn signals)

    Yes. Im with you. The other leds will work if I put incandescent 1157s just in the front signal sockets. I know it can be done. Somehow or another. It's similar to the newer jeeps in a sense. I'm not sure if the signals and running lights break circuit via ground, or how they work. I guess I'm...

    Led conversion (running/turn signals)

    I've tried several different relays, one I'm currently using has an independent ground, and I've tried standard led (not switchback) 1157

    Led conversion (running/turn signals)

    I do appreciate the in depth response but wiring is not my strong suit by any means. So, honestly, it's kind of hard for me to understand. The thing I have a hard time understanding is, I have a video of this exact truck with all these leds working, running lights and turn signals, as it was...

    They won't work at all. As I said, the 1157 running light circuit is sending voltage back into the turn signal circuit. So I'm trying to use diodes to keep the power directional.

    No sir, just the way I drew it, added the 194 just as reference at the end.

    Led conversion (running/turn signals)

    I'm at work so this is as good as I can get for now. Grounds are good. Bare metal, clean, I went the extra mile to clean up all my grounds because I know how picky they are.

    Led conversion (running/turn signals)

    I've converted other older vehicles to led with hardly any issue I couldn't figure out myself. I'd reference my k30 if it wasn't torn down for work right now

    Led conversion (running/turn signals)

    When the running lights are on (brown wire) and led in the socket, it sends voltage back to the turn signal circuit (blue wire) only does it with and led bulb

    Led conversion (running/turn signals)

    Hi all, new here, hopefully I'm doing this whole forum thing right. They've always helped me in the past, even when the threads are 10+ years old. Idk where else to ask or who to turn to for advice here so, desperate attempt here. I'm converting all of my lights on my 86 c20 to led. Just doing...
