• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage.

2011 RT fender lights - what amps would strip LED's draw??

Hi all. I am wanting to put the strip LED light to the fender but want to route via a separate accessory fuse block. What I am trying to ascertain is the amperage or watt being drawn so I can place a fuse on the block.
I have searched online in all the places I know and nothing comes up - just how to wire or using the given plug n play scenario.
Thanks in advance

IMHO a separate FUSE is not necessary if you are using LED's .... I did what you want to do years and years ago ..... plus I added RED LED's to the back of the fender where the red reflective tape was ..... I easily accomplished all of this by Tapping into the fender front TIP light, and running wire to the back of the fender using the raised channel inside the fender ......

Thanks this is what I have but wanting to know what the amp/watt draw is so I can match the correct fuse rating to the lights
 
Yes and no I had extra indicator LEDs on my mirrors and this played up no end with my electronics- hyper flash/screen sensitivity. I removed 1 set and left a small set in place no probs.
I have other accessories that I want to use with the block there’re by negating any other possible faults.
(I will get the fender lights to go/off with the indicators as well)
Thanks
 
If you are wanting them to blink with the signals how would you get that signal if you didn't tap into the signal wire? We have an 11 RTS and I had to run the wire up and tap into both of the wires just behind the plug for the mirror signals.

Hi: yep but using the negative wire (home made plug n play) through an off relay.
Power to the lights comes from the relayed fuse box, though another power relay. Using the negative side as the actuation and the power side running through this relay. The negative wire on the indicator side is where I will tap into using home made plug n play plugs thus off/on etc.
Hope this makes sense

Hi again all - can anyone tell me the draw amps or watts for these either single bank or together. Cheers
