Post subject:  Bulb Swap

Am I doing something wrong here? I swapped two bulbs to LED upgrades to add a bit of brightness to my Barracuda's rally gauge cluster and now neither work. Contacts look clean. I even tried swapping back to original bulb and that doesn't work.

I could see some sort of failure occurring on one, but not two. Its got to be something I've done incorrectly.

I read elsewhere that some LEDs are polarity sensitive, so i tried swapping them around. Still no go.

LED's are polarity sensitive and also typically require full voltage to operate, so they may not be compatable with the dimmer circuit for the dash lights,

check the voltage that is available at the dash bulb socket.
