Default AP1 headlights

Hi everybody!! This is my first post as I have just registered. I've been reading the answers given to questions on s2ki since I bought the s2000 but now I can't seem to find anybody who has made the same foolish mistake as I have.

While modifying my AP1 headlights I cut the wires behind the front blinker lights to connect the wires of my aftermarket blinker lights to the wires of the vehicle. Now the blinker light system is completely non responsive and I think I may have cut a fuse connected to the wires. I feel like such an idiot.... If any of you have any idea where I can replace the fuse I cut or have replacement parts your willing to sell please let me know.

Thank you so much for the help guys!! Its great to be part of the club : )

is your new blinker LED? LEDs are directional, they will only light up when the current goes one way...?

If all you did was chop the wires I dont see how that would affect anything unless you did it while it was blinking and you somehow shorted the thing out - check the turn signal fuse.

if you cut them while the battery was connected, you probably blew a fuse...

Only if it was lit when he cut it. Check the polarity like stated above. Switch the wires.
