LED lights

[campthewestcoast]

I'm changing my fluorescent bulbs to Led tube replacements,I know you remove the ballast and wire them to the red wire from the switch and the white wire which is ground. I can't seem to get them to work. Has anyone done this? Which way did you wire this up?

I assume your led lights are to be connected directly to 12 Volts? You didn't make the mistake that I often do when working on something in our new Hi-Lo, is the master switch in the correct position? The 95 had no master switch and I forget about it all the time. I know you have electrical skills and must have checked for 12 volts at the two wires? Other than this I have no idea what is wrong.

Try hooking the LED's to an other power source to make sure they work and also make sure the polarity is correct.

This is the wiring diagram for my flourescent light to be converted to LED bulbs. I have removed the flourescent light balast.

I am having trouble getting the light to work with the LED bulbs.

OK, LED's will only work when connected positive to positive, and ground to ground. Diodes only allow current flow in one direction, unlike regular light bulbs. I'm sure you have already figured that out. Did you try hooking the LED's directly to a battery to make sure they are working as I suggested? Also, did you check for power at the connections from the switch?

Update, got the replacement LED bulbs working!!
On the wiring diagram, which shows the wiring after you remove the fluorescent light balast.
The left side of the light which has jumper wires between the bulb holders,you must remove these wires.
