Sequential turn signal system
 
I purchased the STS-1M mustang sequential turn signal system for my 2003 GT Mustang. I connected the system on my car and i went over the connection like 10 times and it does not blink like the demo on american muscle that goes 1.2.3 1.2.3 mine goes 1.2 1.2 only two lights blink at differant times. do a tech are anyone else have any helpful tips

you might need a upgraded flasher module from Ford for this.

03gtmustang 10-09-2007 09:36 AM

Its a wiring problem. The flash module just controls the rate at which the lights blink.

I wired it like the instructions said Red module wire to the turn signal wire ORANGE with a BLUE stripe on one side GREEN with an ORANGE stripe on the other side Black module wire to the BLACK harness wire.WHITE module wire to the pigtail wire that comes in the kit an BLUE module wire to the signal wire ORANGE with BLUE stripe other side GREEN with an ORANGE stripe I still get 1.2 not 1.2.3:confused:

wow thats alot of colors mentioned there...take it all apart and redo it. Did you use electrical tape or a butt connector for the connections? Did you twist the wires together or solder them? Must be a small detail your over looking.

mransr 10-09-2007 06:36 PM

I think you need to change out the 3rd bulbs to dual filament ones to make it work

rawdogg 10-09-2007 08:32 PM

I HAVE WENT OVER IT LIKED 10 TIMES STILL THE SAME 1.2 BLINK. IT COMES WITH TWIST WIRES AND ALL THE BULBS ARE DUAL FILAMENT

mpt_1962 10-09-2007 08:38 PM

do they have the sequential lights for 99-04 and 05-07? maybe you got the wrong year...i dont know if they split the years like that but could that be an issue?

rawdogg 10-09-2007 09:01 PM

RIGHT ONES
 
IT IS FOR 96-04 AND THEY ARE SPICE IN THE ONES FOR 2005 AND UP ARE PLUG IN AND ARE FROM AMERCIANMUSCLE.COM IF YOU LOOK AT THE SITE YOU WILL SEE THE DEMO WITH THE LIGHTS BLINKING 1.2.3 1.2.3 NOT LIKE MINE BLINKING 1.2 1.2

krazypony 10-10-2007 04:41 AM

have you called MM up directly for assistance or for asking a refund back? Or PM Emilie from American Muscle that frequents here?

rawdogg 10-10-2007 05:11 AM

I quest i will have to call them but i have a gut feeling they are not going have a answer for me. There as got to be someone on this site that as these lights to let me know how they wired them. they look kinda cool even with the 1.2 blink but when you look at the demo a see them blinking 1.2.3 you feel you done something wrong and i keep going over the wiring over and over

venom 10-10-2007 06:15 AM

I have them and you probably wired it wrong or something is wrong with the kit you have. All AM could do is give you a refund or send you a new kit but if you wired it wrong then no one could help you with that. This is something that one would have to be there to double check all connections. Ive dont two kits with no issues.

rawdogg 10-10-2007 09:11 AM

checked over and over
 
ARE YOURS WIRED THE WHEY THAT I SAID MINE IS WIRED IN ONE OF MY POSTS IF NOT TELL HOW YOURS IS WIRED

Take the #3 bulb out and put #1 or 2 in its spot. See what happens.

rawdogg 10-10-2007 12:38 PM

done that
 
it just changes the pattern from 1.2 to 2.1 i really want to thank everyone for trying to help it's giving me a major headache i might have to take it to a shop and cost me more to put them in then a paid for them but saw a guy with them and man do they look cool as hell . before i bought them

krazypony 10-10-2007 12:48 PM

maybe they can test the wires and make sure they have all good connections going to the circuit boards

Just put one of the bulbs that are working in the spot of #3 and test it if #3 lights up get a new bulb if #3 doesn't light up then call AM get an RMA number (or whatever its called) take it to UPS and you will have a new kit in a couple days. Thats what 03gtmustang told you to do but your response doesn't seem like you did that because it shouldn't change how the lights are displayed.. that third light will either light up or it won't. If it does light up then get rid of that other bulb and get a new one

Exactly. I dont think he understood me at all.

rawdogg 10-10-2007 07:21 PM

they all work
 
all of the bulbs work it's just that two of them work at the same time. It's like the two bulbs blink at the same time then the one bulb will blink. not like one bulb then one bulb then one bulb not like the demo. Mine is two bulbs than one.

03gtmustang 10-10-2007 08:41 PM

So 1 and 2 blink at the same time, THEN #3 blinks? Wiring problem.

i was thinking more like a "no comprendo el wiring diagramo" problemo

rawdogg 10-11-2007 04:34 AM

I GIVE UP
 
I don't think everybody's understanding me i have unwired and rewired more than 10 times just like the instructions say ,just how i wired it in my post before. It does go in squent just with two bulbs at the same time than the one. all of bulbs work i even put in new ones my turn signals work my brake lights work if someone as these lights let me know if your is wired the same

krazypony 10-11-2007 05:33 AM

I know you have exhausted yourself here man, I can totally understand your frustration. What I would do is if you feel you have a good system have someone else totally wire them up. You might just be missing one step here and overlooking it since you have done them 10x now or more.

And if they still dont work, just have them replaced from MM. Could be you just got a bad set?

Stuff like that happens when working on cars.

mransr 10-13-2007 09:26 AM

well, they are either miswired or defective...

I'd say either find a friend to be a "second set of eyes" to confirm the wiring is correct or contact the vendor or manufacturer about getting a replacement part...not much more can be done over the internet

rawdogg 10-15-2007 04:20 AM

defective
 
They were defective AM sent me a new set and BAM they work fine i knew i was wiring them right Thanks for the help everyone

krazypony 10-15-2007 06:34 AM

hmmm...I believe I suggested this in here along the way somewhere!

good job!
