What's the part number on your website?

7507 for rear turn signal

mmmhmm

just installed Azn's amber LED rear turn signals... awesome guys and no errors!!! Thanks Mike

BathingHobo

Just bought the white LED ones and everything seems ok except when I lock the car, sometimes only the left turn signal would flash but the right wouldn't? Anyone else have this problem?

xolinlevh

do the lights work fine every other time? if it only fails when the doors lock that sounds like maybe a hardware issue with teh car? its not sending the signal to the lights correctly....just my guess

I just received mine today, I bought the white LED's, as well.

I'm having the exact same problem. The passenger side bulb would blink (or more precisely, flicker) two to three times, then it cuts out. If I flip the signal switch to right, the switch would blink faster than normal and the dash says "Please check turn signal light."

The interesting thing is, it works fine if I replace the LED's with the stock orange halogen bulb.

The LED's seem to work fine if I put it on the driver side.

Any thoughts, Michael?

AZN Optics

Odd. Haven't had that issue pop up in testing. Try power cycling your car a couple times to reset and see if it happens again.

AZN Optics

I'm wondering if some condition is causing under power on some vehicles. Rbis only happens on passenger side, not driver side and doesn't follow the led if switched.

avengerboater

I have tried turning the car's power completely off, and on, many times.

Here's the scenario:

1) Installed LED bulb
2) Turn on power to the car
3) Flip the signal to "Right"
4) LED would flicker 2-3 times, then cut out
5) Right turn signal would blink faster than normal and dash says to "check turn signal"
6) Turned off the car, on again, and LED still doesn't work
7) Take LED out of the socket, reinstalled, and the whole scenario starts over from step 1.


Eh? You kinda lost me there, sir.

At the beginning I had the message "Please check turn signal light" as well, but yesterday when I went driving, it never came back up so hopefully that went away for sure. Using the right turn signal seems fine when I get out of the car and look. It's just when I lock the car...both sides would flash normally the first time or so but then the right would "go out" while the left signal is still going for the remainder.

AZN Optics

Ok, just so I'm clear, this only happens on right turn signal and not left? And you've tried flipping th left turn signal bulb to right to are if the issue follows the led (which would suggest simply a faulty led) or stays on the same socket (which suggests something odd about that socket as left and right should be the exact same).

BathingHobo

I just tried switching the LED bulbs, and the same side still goes out. Does that mean there's something wrong with my car? I never noticed this problem before with the original bulbs before though.

AZN Optics

Well, could be many things including varying voltage levels from left to right side for signals when they should be the same. As the issue didn't follow the LED, that strongly suggests to me it's not a faulty LED and without your car here for me to diagnose the issue and take some reading, hard for me to check.

avengerboater

So, after doing some testing the last couple of days, I've arrived at the conclusion that the passenger side LED needs some sort of "charge" from the car being on, with engine running, in order for it to function normally.

In other words, if I turn on the ignition, start the engine, and drive the car, then the passenger side LED would work fine. However, if I let the car sit in the garage over night, the passenger side LED seems to "lose it's charge", and the same scenario happens (i.e. bulb would flicker 2-3 times, then cut out completely). Then, when I start the car again, it miraculously goes back to working normally. This scenario doesn't occur with the driver side bulb.

Take from this what you may, Michael, but I'm not sure if this is how it should be. In my opinion, both light should be working just like the OEM orange halogen bulbs (whether the car's been sitting for a day, a week, or a month). It shouldn't be dependent upon whether the battery's up and running from the engine being on in order for the passenger bulb to work.

Maybe you can tweak the bulbs somehow so this wouldn't happen to other clients?

Regardless, the bulbs are a wonderful product, one that I would gladly take over the OEM orange halogens.

AZN Optics

There's no stored charge, but it sounds like the passenger side isn't getting to spec power while the car is off. With halogen bulbs, this would never be an issue as it would just be slightly dimmer with underpower, but with LEDs, they need to hit a certain voltage to trigger the unit on and function correctly. I'm not sure if this is an issue with some vehicles vs others, but was not reported to me by any testers (and on my own car). What I might have to do though is go back and rework the voltage level to accept this scenario for certain vehicles.

AZN Optics

Just found out something interesting. It looks like some international versions of the turn signals do NOT use these 3457 super wedge type base and instead use bayonet bulbs (similar to our rears). As such, I'm going to ask if you are international, please pull out your front turn signal and confirm the type you have prior to ordering.

I will be working with my manufacturer to augment my front turn signals to use the different base to take care of those of you international folks.

Hey quick question. Any deal for getting white LED front turns, white LED rear turns, and 3 sets of the white LED for eye lids and lic plate?

Has anyone used LED bulbs for the postfacelift w204s. I purchased your bulbs for my parking lights and they are great. The turn signals seem to be on the bottom of the headlight housing and tricky to get to. Perhaps from below after pulling the underbody aero panel? Thanks

Cheers! Mike

I wonder if those having problems are having the taillight issue that alot have had, including me on my 08 C. the passenger side connector was melting and had bad continuity off and on. Its a notorious passenger side problem. I got a set of the jdmtoys a while back b4 u even had a testing bulb in progress and it works fine in the rear. The fronts have an external resistor pack its a pain to install. Urs are much nicer to work with

LED's look great! Installed the white turn signals. Hopefully I'll get around to making a video of it at nighttime with the headlights ON this time, so you get a good sense of the brightness and output. As I have only seen videos of the turn signals with the headlights off so far.

This mod is making me want to match everything. Perhaps I am going to pickup a 6000k (or 5000k it appears it is now?) 2 sets for the eyelids and 1 55w h7 kit for the low beams to do a true match, since I'm running 8000k now.

P.S. What kelvin temperature are the white turn signals? They perfectly match my sidemarkers.

AZN Optics

white turn signals should be 5000K

jctevere

Thanks, any idea when the next special run for 55w 5000k will be? They should have the error cancelers built in too right? Also, what would be the price for the special run?

AZN Optics

55W is only an extra $5 more. It'll have to be after Christmas as the factory is shut down for a couple weeks for the holidays.
