I've just fitted some very nice clear front indicator lights on my import Zed. I've fitted chrome indicator bulbs but can't figure out what the second (outside) bulb is for. On the moulding it states '12V 21W' for the bulb which is the same power that was in the 'old' lights, but I can't find any way for this bulb to light, either on the old lights or the new. I've tried every light switch I can find and tried them all with the ignition off and on but they still won't light.

Can anyone tell me what these lights are for and how they can be switched on?

try indicating with your headlights on

I found out about mine at night, they come on when you indicate to light the kirb up so you don't smack it, they don't flash but i don't know if they are legal or not.

Goodness gracious me - how wierd! I thought I had tried all light combinations but not that one. And you are absolutely correct.....I can't wait for it to get dark to test their effectiveness.

 

Many thanks, both ianl and scrawni........how would I manage without this site?
