Sequential tailight help!!

I need help with my sequential tailights! So when I put them on my hazards worked fine working sequentially. But when I do either my right or left turn signal it doesn't work. Only the middle light flickers! And inside the car the arrow flickers quickly as if a fuse is out. And now my brake lights won't even turn on! WTF like when I turn on the parking lights they turn on but when I step on the brakes they don't turn on an now my hazards aren't working!! Not even in the car do they turn on they make no sound and there isn't any indication on the dash tht they are on!

First thing first. I take it these are splice in seqentials. Have you checked all fuses to make sure you didn't pop one?

Check your wiring. Its messed up somewhere on one of your splices. Then replace the fuse

Change your bulbs to all the same brand and kind. I think you have some with a single filament installed you need two filament bulbs. I had the same prob with mine.

I totally agree. if you don't have experience wiring them up just spend the extra money. I got mine from Sequential Turn Signals, One Touch Turn Signals, Challenger Sequential Taillights, Sequential Tail Lights, Mustang, Dynamite Stick Sequential, Pulsing Brake Light Pulser Flasher, Raxiom, Amrerican Muscle, Stack Racing, One Touch, Blink Blink, Corvett I bought them initially for my 85 fiero and had to wire them up...and also got them for my mustang the day I bought it back in 06. I didn't wire up my mustangs though I learned from the first time lol. I did have to experiment with different bulbs like I mentioned because the single filament didn't work sequentially.

Considering you've been at this it's prob a combination of all of these things you prob shorted it trying to figure it out so the fuse is shot. The wireing was wrong, and the bulbs were wrong Lol take a step back and look it all over again.

Yes it did and I followed them step by step but doesn't even turn on. It fried my fuse for break lights. I emailed him pics of it and said it looks right, he said just to wiggle the connection and what not.

If you lived nearby I'd offer a helping hand. I know how tedious it is messing with this kinda stuff especially when you want it towork so badly.

Wiring. The lights look identical to the AM ones with the raxiom slow rate flashers. Well, make sure you buy the original/slow rate ones.

Or you can get a modded flasher relay. I think am has them but they're mad expensive! I got mine from some odd ball web site for lie 10 or 15 bucks. Just Google it first.

You have to wire it up as opposed to it already having a harness.

You have to cut two wires on your harness and run a new one to the inside light. Takes me about twenty minutes to wire them up. Comes with all the connectors and ive never had any issues with any kits I have installed. Need to order two more for friends' cars actually
