    Turn Signal Reverse Colors reversed

    Hello All,
    Getting back to my 818 build after moving over the summer and getting things settled in the new home. One of the items on my punch list is my right rear turn signal. When I signal right it flashes white and when I put it in reverse it glows yellow. Initially I thought the wires in my iWire harness were reversed. I swapped those around and it's no longer lighting up at all. Is it possible I received the wrong bulb altogether?

    Other ideas?

    According to the FF manual the bulbs can go in both way's so all you had to do was put the bulb in 180 degree's different :-)

    The bulb is reversible as Rogier mentioned. Pull it out. Rotate 180 and reinstall and you'll be good to go after you flip the wires back.

    Fixed - wish I had recognized that previously. I actually switched the bulbs at one point and evidently the orientation was still in the incorrect position. Hence my thought that the wiring was swapped.

    Thanks for the easy fix gentlemen!
