So here's what I've run into. I bought new LED tails for my Explorer, and they work great. I also bought 60M-SMT white LED retrofit bulbs for the reverse lights. But when I tried to install the dual colors in the front corners, I can't make them work. I tried to install the 6 ohm resistors, but that didn't help.
See, they are supposed to be white when the parking lights are on, then when you flip on the turn signal, the white goes off and only the amber flashes. But so far, I've only been able to make one color at a time work. I either have white on for parking and turn signals, or only yellow and then only for the turn signals. This happens with or without the resistors.
There's also something rattling inside the bulbs, but they're both operating the same, so I don't know if this has anything to do with the problem.
If anyone has any experience with LED's, please help me out. I really wanna make these work on my truck.
The video shows what they're doing to me now. I just got done messing with them, so took them out and put the stock bulbs back in.

I really hope someone can help me with this.
