Info:
- Key on... MIL flashes full bright for just a milli-second, then goes dim.
- Not using the Ford supplied MIL lamp
- I'm using a generic yellow LED in a custom housing I fabricated.
When the engine is running, the MIL is not/ever totally "out". It glows at about (guessing) 10% brightness.
Questions:
- Is the Ford MIL an incandescent lamp, or an LED?
Ideas:
- If the Ford lamp is a traditional incandescent, thinking to install a "pull-down resistor" (of the same value as the Ford bulb) across my LED... (not to be confused with the current limiting resistor already in series with the LED.)
