307 Rear Led Lights - Am I missing something???

[daffyduck]

Received a pair of led lights for the 307 today. Working ok but there is one bulb which I presume is a brake light is not working. I have uploaded a pic to photobucket and have also labelled it.

The tail light/brake light led cluster works, when the brake is pressed the cluster will be brighter, thats why I presume the mystery bulb should be a brake light.

Any ideas......

I have also uploaded a pic of the leds, I cannot find them anywhere, on ebay or crazy leds. What type are they??

Wouldn`t be the reversing light on the back right of the car ,as the 307 only has back left reversing light?

Yea the reverse light is the led cluster. Im curious to know what the standard bulb is just below the indicator.

Brake, tail, reverse and indicator on one side
Brake, tail, fog and indicator on the other

These were definately for pre-facelift models?

I'll go with brakelight, will check what mine is when i nip out!!

Yea I bought them off ebay, seller said they were definitely for 2001-2005. Seemed very genuine. Stated she had just bought the car and being 59 she felt the lights were a bit boy racerish for her.

Is it normal for the brake and tail to be on the same cluster and for it just to get brighter when you press the brake. That doesnt sound right to me...

[Stubbo]

Yeah some cars do have that, they normally have a dual contact, dual filament bulb in them

[daffyduck]

Right....still doesnt explain why there is a bulb that is not coming on, on each side. Will maybe give her an email, I doubt she will be of any help.

I will have to double check the wiring tomorrow. Its strange that the reverse bulb is on the led cluster, and fog light is for the led cluster.

You would think the brake light and the tail light would have their own led cluster and the indicator/fog reverse would just have the standard bulbs.

I've had 2 set of LED tail lights for my facelift & pre-facelift 307, both have near & offside reverse lights & the facelift model had the rear fogs. I did once have a set though where one of the reverse lights did not work as they were made for a left hand drive which maybe the case with yours?
