    Any wiring junkies out there

    Hey i have a quick question and if is possible to do i have solved all my problems


    ok looking at the factory hid headlight and the harness only has 2 wires for the turn signal, one brown for ground and one for positive. Now this makes the parking lamp come on and then blink when the signal is activated.. ok cool

    Now my real question is can i make that 2 wire set up into a 3 wire set up. My reason is this, i have switchback led's and they are required for a 3 wire set up, one for the ground one for the parking and one for the signal, now resistors are required for the ground and the signal wires for it to properly work.

    when i keep my signal on for too long they dont go back to white they just shut off.

    so can i take the resistor and tap it into the ground and signal wire but then bridge a wire from another positive after the resistor to make the white light back up once the signal is off?


    please give me some feedback i been going nuts to find a way and i know its out there
    I drive it like i stole it , then again

    Should be able to use the positive wire from your city light to power the park, as that is what it it is in reality! (should be gray in colour)!
