Not enough power! I need someone to explain some stuff.

smcdreamz · 12-25-2007, 01:13 PM

I'm sure most of you are busy,

But I'm a little new to everything but I'm learning about em quick.

My headlights have 2x 3 LED's on the side and 2x Halo Ring. I can't hook them up to the park signal cause it overloads it and blows the fuse.

Is there anyway I can add more power to power the LED and Halo without damaging anything?

Fuse box NEED MORE POWER =)
I read that and I'm new to electrical stuff, so if someone has time to explain, I would really appreciate it =D

But yea, they're really crappy but I'm slowly fixing it up. Anyone happen to know how to align these pain in the ass?

HIDPlanet.com doesn't seem to be responding to registration requests these days. I tried to register yesterday and I've still gotten no "validation" email. It's one of those forums where you can't see much unless you're logged in.

They will help you far better since some of those guys specialize in different stuff. One of the subforums is about leds.

yeah hidplanet is trying to control a big burst of rule breakers, and commercial posters on there (i know because i'm a member on there). not alot of admins on there, but alot of threads to control. anyways, have you tried upgrading the fuse? i know its kind of obvious but some people forget that option
