Brake light problems
Fitted RDX LED rear lights to my td5. Worked but didnt get brighter when using the brake. Put the originals back on so i could drive it, but now they dont work either? Any ideas?

Wired them the wrong way round, so the "brake" is coming on with sidelights? so when you press the brake, the (dimmer) sidelights are actually lighting, but you can't see them?
