hi everyone
i've got a problem with my angel eye headlight . two days a go i've recived my angel eye headlights from potn from the uk , i live in the netherlands. now thats not the problem but connecting up the wires is ...the main lights and the derection indecator lights where no problem. but when i wanted to connect the wires for the angel rings, the fuse keeps on blowing out i'ff tried connecting the wires both wayes . but no result . the leds don't go on and the fuse kept blowing out.
does some one know off this problem and do you know maybe how to fix this problem please let me know.

yeah that is something i've tried the 10 amp fuse kept blowing out so i tried a 15 Amp but this one also blows out ..and a higer Amp fuse like 20 Amp i don't want to try because of the risk of blowing out the leds or diode.....

Then its gotta be down to your wiring buddy as both lights with the same fault is very very strange. U got the correct wires? If you have two earths then that can give u problems, its been done

when i've conected al the wire's for the headlights and the indecators . i'm left with two wires at each side .... a red and a black wire .. i think red is + and black is earth (-) . and i use the original wire for the side lights according the haynes wiring diagrams brown is earth . and when i connect the wires like that the fuse blows. ....

try wiring them up to any 12v source directly off battery (fused) to see if the LEDs will work
