I drive in the dark every morning on my way in to work. I always get this nice big single parking space at the far end of the parking lot, back in and walk down a path to the backside of the building. I always watch the tails flash when I lock the doors. From day one, it was always just the top lights to flash. Until.....

About a week ro so ago, I noticed the lower ring around the reverse lights also flash, but very dim. The top still flashes bright. All functions are normal orther than that. Parking, brake, signals, reverse are all normal.

Anyone elses do this?

 

could one of the plugs become loose? My only thought since I installed mine last night and one plug wasn't in "all" the way, so the lights were dim on one side until I could get it seated right.

 

I would bet it is because L.E.D.s work completely different thant normal bulbs. there are a bunch of leds in one circuit and if the pulse they get is weak or really short some wont be as bright. i bet the ones that light up are at the begining of the circuit. they also put resistors in leds so they will pull enough load to work with factory style flashers which may cause it

 

These tails have been in for 2 years now. This started recently. I'll check the plugs again this weekend.
