    hello all

    i got some Dial LED's the other day and got the dash off and got to the board no problem i de solderd the old dials and put a few of the new ones on, went down to the car to test them and all the original ones worked apart from the new ones so i looked closer and seen the original's were a particular way so i changed the bulbs around so they were identical to the original bulbs and still no luck why are they not working anyone?
