Dixa1225 Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Under dash on the LH side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beagler Posted February 2, 2022 Author Share Posted February 2, 2022 Thanks will have a look. Ordered Led tail lights so need to change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K7 VCT Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Yes you need an led rated one, about £5, everyone seems to sell the same ones, but not at the same price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted February 2, 2022 Member Share Posted February 2, 2022 The layout should be in the Handbook. Let us know if you can't find it.Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottR400D Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Which LED tail lights? The CC ones don't need a new flasher unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beagler Posted February 3, 2022 Author Share Posted February 3, 2022 Hi Jonathan, have removed velcrode cover and found the fuses but no relay is it behind the big rubber bung or somewhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beagler Posted February 3, 2022 Author Share Posted February 3, 2022 Apologies its on the bulkhead among the relays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted February 3, 2022 Member Share Posted February 3, 2022 Please could you let me know if it isn't in the position shown in the Handbook. There are at lest three layouts on Sigma-engined car...Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beagler Posted February 3, 2022 Author Share Posted February 3, 2022 Jonathan,you can just see the relays behind that black box. Its among those.Tha,nks for your patience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Ford Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 #7: "The CC ones don't need a new flasher unit"Interesting. How do they manage that? I imagine it must use a ballast resistor which wastes enough power as heat to fool the flasher unit into working properly. To my mind that defeats one of the advantages of LED lights, i.e. low power usage. If you're stuck at the side of the motorway with a low-capacity Lithium Ion battery and your hazards on, you might certainly wish they'd just provided a new flasher unit with the lights, rather than using a ballast resistor.

Member Jonathan Kay Posted February 3, 2022 Member Share Posted February 3, 2022 Yes, but which position is it in amongst its fellows?Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beagler Posted February 3, 2022 Author Share Posted February 3, 2022 I have removed it and You can see the empty port next to the one with the hole in the tab just above the fuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted February 3, 2022 Member Share Posted February 3, 2022 How many relays are there, including that one? And are they in one row or two?ThanksJonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottR400D Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 #12 what are the odds of that? In any case it'd be no worse than the original lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Ford Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 #17 indeed, but "it's no worse than the previous version" has never struck me as a good sales pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beagler Posted February 3, 2022 Author Share Posted February 3, 2022 Just 4 in a single verticle row including Flasher so 3 others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottR400D Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 #18 Quite, but it's one slight disadvantage that would only be apparent in an extremely unlikely situation, versus several other advantages that are there whenever you use the car. I would think most modifications have some downside, however small or insignificant it might be but, as ever, we have a choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
