LEDs are sensitive to their polarity. If you accidentally hooked the pos to the neg and vice versa they won't illuminate. I will trade you LED problems. I think I cooked the ones I was using for my third brake light.

the wires arent crossed because the will still light up with the turn signals...the ground idea is a possibilty but if it works without the headlights on wouldnt that mean that the ground is secure??

I think he means he wants them on all the time when the headlights are on, like parking lights.

The only thing really possible is the ground from what you are telling us... I think  ...Ed EDIT: Hey, I just noticed...you're a LOCAL!
