  1. Same issue here. P0456. NatG says his is underneath and damaged by snow, but WWWPerfA_ZN0W says it by the firewall. Which is which? I see the one by my firewall, It doesn't seem to be pulling a vacuum like the video says. Has anyone solved this problem?
  2. The resistor worked! I never would have guessed that. Once the resistor was installed the weird voltage went away. I attached a pic. For those who care: the black wire is ground, the green wire is +12V for the bright side (or the amber), the yellow wire with a green stripe is +12V for the dim side (or white in this case). Thanks for the help Wizard.
  3. I did not. I figured that would only fix the fast flash. I could try it though.
  4. You're correct, the dim is the white, the bright is the amber. I'll post a pic or a video. The amber side (bight filament) was switching between 12V and 9V.
  5. I recently installed some cheap Type 1 switchbacks in my 2011 Sport. They stayed orange. Hmmmm... I paid some more money and bought some Type 2. They also stayed orange. I tested the LEDs on a bench. They were working fine. The inner two contacts are white, the outer two are amber. Time to get my multi-meter. I opened the hood and pulled the bulbs, and tested the socket. It turns out the voltage for the low filament (or in this case the amber color) never goes below 9V. When you put the turn signal on it alternates between 12V and 9V. When you turn the turn signal off, it goes back to 9V. 9V is not enough to turn the LEDs off, so they stay lit. 9V wont light the incandescent bulb, but it will light the LEDs. Hence, the white never get the signal to come on. Aside from a solid state relay or a voltage regulator, I don't know how to solve the issue.
  6. The wheels look awesome! Nice job! I did that to my F-350 wheels but I haven't done the Edge wheels yet. I was quite happy with the results. Its been over a year and they haven't come off yet! I ordered the DRLs that you're using but I haven't received them yet. Are you happy with them?
  7. Is just one leaking? Is it from the bead? How often are you putting air in?
