Having Problem w/ Switchbacks

[B.Crowder]

I'm having a problem with the switchbacks I picked up on ebay. They worked when I installed them in July. But now, in the daytime, the driver's side flashes erratically (see video below) and the passenger side doesn't light up at all. However, when the headlights are on, the switchbacks work normally. I did not install the resistors (50W 6ohm) that came with the bulbs. I read something off-site that said I might even require 3ohm resistors. I also have the Raxiom hood vent turn signals and those work properly.

Anyone have any similar experiences with this?

As you can imagine with ANY products made in China that the quality control is not the best and so some of these lights being purchased will have issues.

This is the trade off when paying more for products that come from Raxiom and Diode Dynamics because they make sure the QC is what it should be and if not they back their products and will replace anything if there's a problem.

I have Raxiom lights everywhere and have purchased some I bought on Ebay but they are just backup and just the interior lights.
