If the turn signal and brake use the same filiment, Have you tried reinstalling a standard bulb and rechecking? I'm wondering if the problem just wasn't noticed previously

On your stock bulbs the part numbers should be printed. Search online for the right substitutions in LED for that number. I use superbrightleds.com too and have had no problems. Try turning the bulb 180 degrees like 2000mc suggests too. I did that with one bulb and it worked, IIRC.

You want a 7443 bulb, not a 7440 if that is what you have. If you have a 7443, then its defective.


The car bulb finder on the website should get you the correct product. They don't even list a 7440 option for the tail lights of your car.
