LED number plate light
 

what would make my number plate light flicker? its all wired correctly Ive checked 3x my first led plate bulb started to have an intermittent flicker so i changed the unit now the new ones doing it? its annoying the sh#t out of me :( and I'm on the verge of putting the snow plow back on :(

R&G light provided with a Tail Tidy?

Mine started doing it ages ago - have tried to remove it and cant - will need to get a replacement THEN cut this one off...

So basically if it is then, "They all do that Sir"

the first one to go wasnt an R&G it was one off eBay, the current one is an R&G one so i dunno?

do they need a different voltage? or can they be wired straight in? my stock plate bulb plugs in and works no problems.

Gotta be a wiring thing if the leds are ok. Check and clean the connections and see how that does you.

A fella down here once had his led indicators tinkling whilst polishing the bike with pledge just from the static!

if all the wiring is good i would hazard a guess they need some form of resistor

Kwak, are you sure it's not shorting out somewhere along the line? I'd be inclined to check the whole line of wiring for the light. The wire may have been chafing against something, and now the bare wire is intermitently earthing itself against the frame/metal causing it to flicker.

This advice might be a whole-lotta-bull, but you never know:smt102
