Hello, You didn't show the RUNNING LIGHT setting. How is that activated? It's listed as an effect but I don't understand what makes it do that once everything is wired.
@@superdazproductions8461 Connect the green wire to your power source. I didn't connect as it's illegal in my state.
Power source? Can you be specific? Any light in my car has a power and a negative. Power source is generic @@AutoSensation
If you have any doubts about this install, first I want you to go ahead & pay attention to all the details. And if you are ready to do this, then go ahead! He is pretty much giving you the go ahead. Just make sure you go ahead & double check all the wires, because you don't want to stop a tail. What you want is to...
Go ahead.
Thanks for the helpful video. Provided me with some insight & perspective on an upcoming install of my own. Now go ahead!
Hello, love the video very informative and simple way of showing how to install the LED, I’m looking to do the same on my 2004 Kia Optima. Would you happen to know where I can find a wiring diagram for this job on my 04 Kia Optima? Thx.
Thank for showing us how you test the wires , great job
Your welcome
Better explanation than others videos, I bought same as yours
Thanks 😊 glad the video was helpful
I wanted to put it tuck in my hatch edge in between so you just see a halo in the top seam... not disturbing followers behind ...at night they see it more light up in the rear
looks perfect bro good job
i have question please how you make it work with emergency light
Thanks. Just connect left yellow to left signal and right yellow to right signal' black to ground or an unpainted bolt. Red to constant power. Emergency will work automatically once you hit the Emergency switch.
Also my idea is to link the green wire to the reversing light signal, so when you back up, other cars will see your extra red light flashing. At the same time, I think it will be legal, and it also makes up for the lack of reversing when the light strip is designed.
That seems like an idea. Green to reverse light
This wouldn't be legal at all, because people will not be sure if you're stepping on your brake, might assume you are stopping, and try to go ahead by you. There are reverse lights that aren't red tho and that's not a bad idea.
Hello just want to ask i recently install my smoke 3rd brake lamp on my fortuner 2017 but im confuse there is a yellow wire which is i dont know were to connect it and whats the use it thank you
Seems some folks have had quality issues with the light you linked to, as well as some similar. Any reliable brands. I am trying to find a good light so when the primary lights are partially obscured by a bike rack. Also I don’t like the way the brake light overrides the turn signal, I assume this can be avoided by not connecting the brake wire.
Hi Sir just to ask where did you connect the acc ? Thanks
I need this! 🤲
Excelente video e instalaciones hermano
Thanks
Parabéns, muito obrigado !!!
Can you show how to change the lights signal side mirror I would like to change the red color on my pilot 2021 please thanks for all your videos really helpful
Yes. On the list. Probably in the next month.
I have this but I’m struggling to figure out where to find constant power and ground in the rear of the car
Thanks for help
Your welcome
Where did you get the light up rear logo?
Super 👌
Hay there, your video is great but can you tell me if you have connected the red wire directly to constant power even when the car is totally switched off? cause I heard from another video that it consumes some current about 0.06 A which could drain your battery if it is not running for some days. Thanks buddy
Never connect a cheap part directly to the battery, it should be connected to acc on , whenever you need it only .
can you please help me!! i did connect it and its working just when the car not starting and ready to drive! when im drivin just working the break mode! left mode or right mode and the warning mose not warking
How to do that on a honda integra? I bought a similar like this but it's white
i bought that kind...same thing you have...but have not installed it yet...so watchin your video to learn ho to connect to the brake lights....thanks for the video, by the way i am installing it to my HONDA ACCORD 2017 sedan, its not the same as you have the hatchback....so hopefully the connection will be the same????
Connection will be similar but you may need to get automotive wire to extend the wires
@@AutoSensation thats what i did, the wirings are short...realy short goinig to the trunk of the car ...- 2017 Accord... Thanks
TIP !! If you only want to use it as a Brake light...TIP !!!!!!!! connect both wires Red and White to Brakelight Signal Plus and the Black offcource to ground then if you let go off the Break it will immediately switch off the Brakelight . If you Connect the Red to a Perminent Hot source and the White to the Brake Signal hot the brake light will go out from outside to inside not immediately.
Cool. Thats good to know. I didn't know that. Thanks for the tip!
I just followed your tip and it works exactly how you described and it’s exactly how I wanted it to work hahaha thanks so much man!
Thanks for the smart tip that's exactly what am looking for, I wonder if I can cut or remove, it's too longer for my car , thanks again .
Okay thanks cause I don’t want that extra animation thing I just want it on and off no sequential
@@user-ex9by6td6iI wanna know that too but I have a 16 Navigator idk if I wanna have it too long and beat the fact of the race track taillights
Wow 🤩 you’re super smart friend
If you can please send me

You are perfect
I have a 2020 honda passport, and I’m pretty savvy with things like this. I’m having a very tough time identifying which wires to tap the pins into on my trailer light harness.
What sort of trouble? Wires should be pretty similar to the pilot
Also is there a way for you to make this not light when the car is running ( i will only need it to light for signal and break only )
Yes, don't connect the green wie for the running lights
Mine is white and the led is facing to the other side so if i will stick it to the window it will shine inside
I get tons of rain runoff along the top off the hatch. Is your run off going down through the gap in that gasket and running down your supply wires?
I haven't notice any water running down the supply wires. I'll check if it does when it rains.
Eu estalei a fita so que o pisca alerta nao da certo ,conectei o fio amarelo em uma seta e o outro amarelo na outra ate ai ficou certo ,quando aciono o pisca alerta fica é ligado a seta pra um lado e para o outro ,alguem sabe como solucionar esse problema?
Hey nice video. Is it possible to disable the strobe function of this led strip? Like just a dim light when parking lights are turned on and brighter when the brake is applied? Please let me know. I too have the same led strip light shown in the video and did not connect the green strobe wire. Thanks.
If your looking for 50% brightness when parking lights are on and 100% brightness when brake are pressed you will need to get a different set that does not have the strobe function for brake. Unfortunately, you cannot disable in this one.
@@AutoSensation hey thanks for the reply, i am thinking of some modifications to this light with some diodes and resistors for 50% and 100% brightness. If it works then will let u know.
So, the red and white must be connected, with ground, for the brake light to work properly?
Red & white wire connect to break light + ve (connect to that bulb +ve which lights up when you hit the brake pedal).
Black to negative.
Yellow right wire to right indicator +ve
Yellow left wire to left indicator +ve
Green can be left out, or if you want the strobe effect (which is illegal) it can be connected to + ve of that break light which lights up only when you turn on the front headlights.
Hope this helps.
Hi, do you know what is the exact name or model of those push pins? Thanks
This is exactly what I used. amzn.to/3VOMmDE
Nice video. I installed mine today but it couldn't stay on the glass even after a good clean with rubbing alcohol and not as bright as yours.
Thanks. Yes. Same here the 3m tape only lasted a couple days. I went to my local hardware store and bought stronger 3m tape. www.lowes.com/pd/Scotch-Mount-1-in-x-5-ft-Two-Sided-Tape/1002430894
I got problem in my chevy sail brake light is no working
Is light strip compatible with 2019 honda passport?
Yes. Make sure you have trailer hitch wiring.
Hi, I ordered an item on Amazon, but when I opened my trunk I found there didn't seem to be a place to link the red line. My car is a 2010 Corolla. Brake lights, turn signals, and reversing lights do not have a live wire interface（positive）, what should I do ? I cant even find the acc. Those light bulbs have 2 to 4 plugs on their connectors. In addition to the turn-on signal, the other one is the ground wire. So I have go to the fuse box to find the power supply? I'm sorry, the wiring port of the car that is too old is different from the current one. Now there are all kinds of lines in one connector in new car. But in the past, a light bulb was linked to a separate connector each one.
You might have to run your acc to the front fuse box for constant power. Use automotive wire. Use a volt meter for the rest to determine which is V+ (it's either one or the other) from the two pin connector
Hi I was wondering the white wire hook up to ? I have the same thing you have but I try to hook up to my trailer harness . can u please help me thanks in advance
The white wire should connect to your brake lights.
@@AutoSensation thanks It work but only when I step on the break. Is on a trailer harness on 07 pilot I will take a picture n post it so u can see . Thanks again 4 your help
How do you install this strip light on lexus rx350 2021?
I'm not familiar with the wiring of the lexus but should be similar if you have the trailer wiring. If not you can locate each wire separately. You will need to extend the wires.
I do like it though but with tinted windows I'll have to see how much light goes through
During the day may not be so bright. At night it's great!
Ehhh how to make it stop the extra animation and just be on as regular
Cause I’m trying to move the position on my 16 Navigator due to it being out all the time
If your talking about the animation while driving, don't connect the green wire.
Can you use this on a 2019 Kia forte??
Yes. Pretty universal.
@AutoSensation, what is the best way to reach out to you personally for help? I have this wire to my 2014 Honda Civic and everything works fine but when I first bought it new and tested it with enable battery everything function how it supposed to. As soon as it’s wired to my car, the brake light function and emergency light function operates with a problem. There’s supposed to be a small amount of light started from the centerpoint and flashes outward to either side. For some reason it adds more light to the right. What’s the issue?
Let's narrow down the problem. Try testing with the battery again. If it works correctly it's the wiring, if theres a problem the unit if faulty and exchange.
@@AutoSensation hey so I rewired everything to the other side of the car. Basically, I had everything wired to the right tail light. Now I have it wired to the left tail light and everything supposed to, the only thing I’m struggling with is finding out where I have my constant power wire, it’s hard to identify. I want my third brake light to flash also when it locks and opens a car like you did in your video is the constant power wired to be thicker than the rest is that I find it
@@superdazproductions8461 Its hard to tell. What kind of car? Normally when you lock or unlock your car does the brake flash?
@@AutoSensation it’s a 2014 Honda Civic EXL, by brake light you mean the one just behind the windshield near the backseats? I will have to notice to make sure if it lights up when I lock it or unlock it.
@@AutoSensation it’s 2014 Honda civic, yes when I lock or unlock the taillights flash
Why my signal can not together connect???
Hi I am trying to figure out for mini Cooper R56 with the wiring connection
Any suggestions
I'm not familiar with mini coopers. Does you have a trailer hitch wiring?
@@AutoSensation no
@@anonymous-ro4sj then you can hardwire directly to the brake, turn signal, ground to a screw and a power source. You may have to extend the wires.
What name and brand and where to buy .Thank you.

Please help, I have a 2017 Pilot, but; I don't have a connector like your pilot. I opened the left rear panel.
Honda Pilot 2017 EX-L
You probably don't have a trailer hitch. So your wiring would be taped up high. You have to untape it to bring it down.
@@AutoSensation thank you
mine when tapped on break wire is on even no press in pedal ;)
Double check your connection. Most likely your brake wire is connected to something different.
OK. How to install it in an Astra k 2016??
Not familiar with the Astra K but I think you might have to wire each one to the light itself. You you will need to extend the wires.
@@AutoSensation It worked only for a while, of course, extending the wires, then the emergency lights were on all the time no matter where I gave +... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Do you how the exact link to this light . I’d Appreciate it
amzn.to/3yaRovY
You are literally the best
Why my signal can not connected??
Hi, where did you buy it from? I’m very interested, thanks
ebay.us/9squzP Ebay.
Thanks
@@AutoSensation so you have 2 different ebay listings within this post, are they different?
@@nerdyparent yes. The original went out of stock and now it's back. Use this. ebay.us/9squzP Make sure you get the newer and brighter LED 2835.
@@nerdyparent I will update.
Would love something like that that would be just a brake light and nothing else and all come on at once not flow
amzn.to/3geEFkY this should do
how do you test the left and right turn signal with that tool ?
Yes. With the voltage meter. Turn the right signal on and see which wire has power, switch the right signal off and see if that same wire has no power. That would be your right turn signal. Repeat the same step for your left turn signal.
thanks you so much . do you think is it ok to use wire connector clips ?
@@michaelramirez2369 yes. Should be fine. Make sure you use the right size for proper connection. I believe they are color coded for size.
@@AutoSensation thank you so much for your advise. i'll try to do it. 😁
You got this.
I'm trying you way can not connecting respond??
Check and make sure each wire is connected correctly to the right.
Where can we buy this ?

Hi Sir kinonect ko red wire sa parklight and the led lights function well if I turn ON the parklight, meaning nagagamit ko ang led light in evening lng so i decided to run wire coming from acc but when i connect it to the red wire it didnt works , old corolla ang car po...thanks
Your acc wire should connect to a constant power source. Not the parking light.
Nag tap po ako ng wire from accessory then connect sa red wire ayaw pa din, wala po constant wire sa socket ng old corolla
Hypothetically speaking, let's say I have no experience or common sense on the wiring. 🤔 How do I connect the LED wiring connect to the car harness? Thank you for the video!
locate the harness for your brake and turn signal in the rear of your vehicle. Test with a multi-meter to see which one has constant 12v power only when vehicle is on (not when off) then write down or remember the color. Flip your left turn signal and find out which wire in your harness jumps in voltage from 0-12v repeatedly. Do the same with the right turn signal and label or write it down. Now with the brake have someone step on the brake pedal and find out which wire on the harness has 12 v. Now that you got everything labeled disconnect the battery. Behind the harness push the correct pin behind the harness with its correct label. Clean up with electrical tape and make sure no wire is touching each other. Connect the battery and test and your done.
I appreciate your attention to detail on these. Thanks again!
Or better yet just buy a t harness for trailer wiring and just simply connect the same colored wires
@@nerdyparent a t harness would work. I didn't think of that.
Hey bro any ideas about wiring 3rd break 2018 camry xse v6 i purchased the same as yours. Please let me know thanks
I'm not really familiar with the camry but from the looks of it if you are going to need to get some automotive wire and extend the wires. If you are placing it inside on the top of the window the white wire can tap into the 3rd brake on the bottom of the window. The yellow wires can tap into the left and the right turn signals on the rear panels. The black you can find an unpainted bolt to screw in with. The red you will have to find constant power using a meter in one of the harness inside any rear panel. Hope that helps a little.
@@AutoSensation thanks bro
My connections isn’t like that i have a chevy colorado and its combined
You might need to get a volt meter or continuity tester to check which wire is which.
My turn signals only work on this when I'm also pressing the brake pedal. That just how it is?
Is your positive connected to your brake. The acc should be connected to a constant power source when the vehicle is on.
@@AutoSensation Got that fixed. My constant was run from an old cd changed so I switched that. Now though, if I press the brake and use my signal it just stays on the brake light. Signal works when I'm not on the brakes lol.
@@AutoSensation Contacted the seller. If the brake pedal is pressed, it will no longer signal for a turn. This is a bit of a fatal flaw, bc if you are stopping at an intersection and have your signal on to turn, it just goes away when you brake and no one can tell which way you are turning anymore.
I bet it's illegal in California because too many sequence lights show . California only allowed led sequential brake lights and led sequential turning signal lights , but no fancy stopping sequential third brake lights . I would love to have it on my car but i could get cited by the police .
Where do you buy this? how much is it?

@@AutoSensation can i use it for car too ? Sir
@@tonycervantes4816 yes you can
Sory you cant cut Car LED Brake lights Strip for my car is to big?
Not reccomenned to cut.
@@AutoSensation I cut and it work
@@dandumitrescu7550 wouldn't the signals be off centered?
Just bought one a slight bit too long but may just fit it anyways.
Hi I buy my self but to long can I cut that light end side please reply me ASAP thanks
Hello, can you tell me, where you ordered your strip light? I ordered one off EBay, waited 3 weeks for my electrician buddy to help me wire it, and all we could get is the sequential mode to work? If you didn’t have the green wire, hooked to the power, and ground, nothing would work? He hooked positive, and ground, and couldn’t even get the brake light to work?
I got mine off ebay. So if the green wire is not connected then it would not work? Try testing straight to the battery. Red wire to positive terminal and black to negative terminal. Now to check your brake tap the white wire to the positive terminal that should activate the brake. Test the left yellow to the positive terminal to test the turn signal.
@@AutoSensation yes, I tried that. Positive (Red wire) to positive on the battery, and black negative, to negative battery, nothing?
@@AutoSensation we tried everything. If you hook up the positive, and the ground, you should get a brake light, correct? We just couldn’t get it to work, no matter what we tried, and my buddy is a professional electrician.
No. Positive and ground will give the unit power (no lights will be on). The white wire is the brake. When you add power then the brake will turn on. I'm no professional but that's how mine works.
@@AutoSensation Ok, I see what you’re saying now? My buddy said, if you connect the positive wire, to battery, and black to negative, the light should light up? You actually have to add the white, for it to light up? Thanks a bunch
Good job GO HAWKS...
Thanks. Go Hawks
Push the brake and put signal light I want to see the signal lights work
Can this item go on the outside of the car?
Yes they can. They are IP67 waterproof
Just got first one today in mail, no color wiring id included... great china quality
Yeah. They all are China quality. Some better than others.
@@AutoSensation I finally got mine to work. Do you have to have the lights on, on yours, for everything to work?
@@AutoSensation Hello I purchased a tail wing from ebay that didn’t come with instructions lol, it has a three wire plug that plugs in a box and on the other end of the box there are six wires two red wire white black yellow and a brown wire, can you please give me some kind help????? One of the red wires is very long and the brown wire is long as well
@@MrKenwillis sorry. The best I can tell you to do is to test each wire with a 12volt battery. Red wire to positive and black wire to negative. Now try each wire to the positive and it will show you what lights up. I'm no electrician or mechanic but that's what I would do.
@@AutoSensation yes that’s what I did and I made a note of it. Thank you very much for the quick response.
Why the inside, if it's waterproof
I didn't like how it looked on the outside.
What company sells this led light strip and what is the product called
Lots of companies sell this. Product is call LED third brake strip. Some have different LED types. amzn.to/3JiB40V

Hi I buy my self but to long can I cut that light end side please reply me ASAP thanks
@@khalidyaqoob6531 No. You cannot cut. There are 3 different sizes you can purchase.
what if i dont have a tail gate light....can i still hook it up
@@raheimwalker7049yes but would be more difficult to wire. You would need to find constant 12v source somewhere then tap into your brake and signal lights left and right.
Hello sir, please how long does the lights last for?
Hi . I got it installed today. But the ACC power is given form the meter light hende it will work only when Meter light is on.
If i connect red wire to the vehicle ignition through the fuse in front side then i think it will work the all mode in day time also ..
Pls let me know am i right?
Yes. It will only work when your power source is on.
Cool concept but the turn signal shouldn't go from one side to the other. That's confusing to the drivers behind you. Looks like a store window at a vape shop . Maybe other companies have the sequence down better
I agree. Maybe the turn signal should start from the center instead of the end.
This seems like it a product which could cause confusion and potentially dangerous.
If you turn your left signal on, someone may mistake you for being an unmarked police car with a traffic directory which is ordering traffic to pass you on the left... rather than indicated wishing to turn left yourself.
See I was kinda worried about the same thing. So I’m just going to wire the brake light and not the signals to use it as a stand alone 3rd brake light.
Pinoy ka sir? 🙂
Yes sir
Does is act a tail light too?. When lights on?
Yes. Brake and turn signal. If you want it to be on as parking you will need to connect the green wire too but I think it's sequential during while driving which is why I did not connect the green wire.
