Hey guys just put in new OEM projectors and used retros harness. Everything works GREAT except I noticed my amber light on the drivers side isn't working when the lights are on but does work when I turn the turn signal on. Anyone have any ideas?? Thanks

There could be a loose wire in your retroshop adapter or a broken connection. Or you bought broken projectors.

Did you buy your lights brand new or used?

Try switching the retroshop adapters from one side to the other. See if the problem follows the adapter. If it does, then its an adapter problem. If it stays the same even after switching adapters then its a headlight problem.

They're used but in great condition. I'm just confused because every light is working, the amber led even flashes with i lock and unlock the truck but doesn't come on when I turn the headlights on?

Are you sure it's supposed to? I will check to see if mine are always on when I turn my lights on

Ya, I mean the passenger side is on so I'm assuming they're suppose to be? Just can't figure out for the life of me why every other function works except that one. If nothing worked I would say the leds were bad or something, but it's just this one thing

Ahh ok, I must have skipped over the part where you said the passenger side was on

Not to mention I noticed some fogging happening also, is that normal for the projectors?

Figured it out, looked over all the wires thoroughly and realized one wire came undone, so everything is now working great! Thanks for the help guys, got my brain working lol.
