The outer brake light blinks red, the inner part that is amber does nothing

The OEM LEDs installed on the halogen models will not blink yellow unless the actually harness was changed as far as I know. I’m 99% sure the guy who had the local shop do it did not get it to blink yellow, just probably disabled the fast blink like the rest of us and the blinker blinks red. It...
I recommend you read this thread for all options:

I tried some Chinese ones first (lumen8) and the right brake light didn’t work. After seeing this thread, I ended up swapping OEM LEDs on. The...
sounds like you may be trying install aftermarket LED lights? Those are usually the ones with the red wire, it has to be connected inside the tailgate to the 3rd brake light. The OEM lights have no red wire, just the one plug.
Sorry should have clarified- the amber does not illuminate, just flashes red, but I was expecting that already as others have mentioned there is some extra connection that the LED models have wired in. Maybe someone savvy with electrical work could get them to work by splicing some wires?
At...
Ok guys I finally took the plunge and installed the OEM takeoff LEDs on my black diamond. I’m happy to report that they appear to work perfectly so far! They’ve only been on for 20 min so will have to test more when it gets dark. I made only ONE forscan change as suggested by GusVG (it was my...
Is there a separate "Rear LED Turn Outage" option for left and right?
I just see the one on the list there. I haven't gone into Forscan myself yet so just trying to be as prepared as possible. The OEM LEDs I ordered are still in transit.
Have you gotten to install these yet? I have a set of OEM's on the way now as well, have to get set up with Forscan now as I have never used it before.
I have a set of OEM takeoff LED tail lights on the way for my Black Diamond, going to attempt @GusVG method. I am fine without the amber turn signals, just want the LED look and running lights. I have never used Forscan but figured I'd get a set of lights then figure it out after.
As I...
It seems like that may be the only reliable option, as it seems all the aftermarket LED OEM style lights are shaky at best in their quality control. That’s probably my next route.
So finally got to installing them. When testing i noticed the passenger side brake light does not illuminate. All other lights are functional: running lights, startup animation, reverse, and even amber sequential turn signals. Im very frustrated because these lights really look nice. I am in...
So I decided to get the Lumen8 smoked LED tails from buckle up off-road for my 23 BD as I am not a fan of the halogen look. Installed yesterday and after testing I notice the lights function all as they should except the passenger brake light does not illuminate with the other 2. All other...
Thanks for putting this thread together. I am in a similar boat, just got my BD and tail lights are the first things I’m upgrading as I hate the halogen look and feel the OEM LED shape really pops. I have been researching for a few weeks and decided to order the smoked LED (lumen8) from buckle...
