My high and low outter ring light isn't working on the left side. I bought a new one and I have the same problem. Is there a fuse or a software issue? The blinkers work fine.
I'm not sure if there is one, as far as I know they use electronic fuses that auto reset. I know the Model 3 had a recall on the trunk wire harness for a similar issue: www.tesla.com/support/model-3-trunk-lid-harness-retrofit It's possible that you got a faulty replacement light. You would need to test the lamp independently from the car and/or verify with a multimeter that the socket is getting power.
Unless you plan to power it from a battery, you would need to start with an AC to DV power converter/transformer that matches your local power source (wall outlet) and the tail light you plan to use (12/24v).
@@XFR937 It's been a long time since I've had one of those. I can't remember if they rely on CAN or not. Looking at the pictures, models with those large LED controller units generally require CAN, but not always. I give it 80% odds that it needs can vs not.
You didnt show how you connected to the pins. Black to ground and red to pin you want to light up?
Yes, you apply + power to the positive pin for the light you want to test that is pointed out in the beginning of the video.

@@gftgrill thanks for the reply.
What would i need to do to turn a tail light in to a lamp in my bedroom?

Can this also be done on a Jaguar F type led headlight? I made one taillight for the garage, but not sure about a headlamp. Please help.
