Default 2016 Street Glide Special LED light conversion
I purchased some LED conversions from EBay that are Supposed to just plug in to where the 1157 bulbs plug in for turn signals, tail lights, and brake lights. We installed them, they don’t light up, or are very dim. But, when we turn the ignition switch off, all four flash brightly when the security system engages. Any suggestions? Seller sent me a full second set and they do the same thing. Thanks!

A long shot... but can you rotate the plug 180 degrees and see what happens. Or you could try running the hazards for a minute and see if that helps.

Just a couple of guesses.

I hope this helps.

Some details would be a great help (e.g. pics & seller link)...otherwise it's a "crap shoot."

If they are Custom Dynamics lights go to their web site and look at their instruction video. There’s a sequence to go through in which you turn on ignition and flashers to sync them.
Try that

Thank you for that suggestion, I did go to their website, video didn’t have instructions for syncing, but written instructions did. Will try that today.
