LED Lights from Zomk Speed - need Help
Just installed my Led Lights from Zomk Speed (Sonar) & they are dead, nothing... old ones work fine.

Anyone knows what can be a problem?

check the plug connections and make sure they arent bent and the clip is plugged in all the way. check the fuse for your taillights and make sure you didnt burn a fuse

OK,
I was looking at the light connector from the car and new Led lights and I dont think they are correct - one of the wire pins "Green" from the leds connects to "nothing" in my OEM harness
See below

Led's connector





Inside:



My OEM/BMW connector inside:




As you can see pins 1,2,4 & 5 are occupied but pin # 3 is empty...maybe this is my problem?

Can someone with LED's lights please check these on your pre-facelift for me before I go thought the pain of returning them back. THANKS>

I had the exact same issue on my 2003 4.6is. I followed this thread, and bam - the parking lights work now.

when i got this new set i had to plug it in a little tighter - took a while to get the plugs into the OEM. Make sure its completely plugged in. I know it sounds stupid..

If not - then return them I guess. Turn signal - nothing working?

Turn signals are working fine ( I changed the turn signal bulb to the silver one) but the Led's are completely dead
