Crap cheap lights, could check the earth & maybe put new bulbs in but I reckon your gonna have to live with it if you want image over substance.

Cant you offer decent advice, he didnt ask for your opinion on the lights did he?
I would check all the connections and wires, I sit just one of the lamps or the whole unit?

Are you using the standard wiring or piggyback connections?
Try swapping the lights over and if the problem sticks with the lights then its a cluster/bulb fault.

Have you tried swapping the bulbs on the bright side to the dim side? If same problem then there is a issue with a connector

Err, yes he did, He said-
"any ideas what it could be?"
So if he'd got crap cheap lights that could have been why they weren't working well. & what was wrong with the rest of my advice about bulbs & earth? These type of lights are notorious for being a bit 'Danny' anyway.

Exactly, it didn't say did it? So being cheap & crap could have been the problem. & by the sound of his later post I was probably right as they were second hand with butchered wiring. Not exactly new & state of the art by the sound of it ay?

Grow a pair mate and grow up. He asked for help not your advice simple as.. Saying they're crap and cheap wont help him... If you have nothing decent to say dotn say it at all. Ok.

Look f***y, read things properly before you start your key board warrior bulls**t!! He said
"Got my angel eyes all fitted and wired up but one of them if duller then the other one hmmm any ideas what it could be?"
That's asking for advice & that's what I gave him, where were your pearls of wisdom?

you always get the odd germ trying to be smart.
glad you sorted it Mowle5677. Just make sure you make all the wires water tight and connected securely fella.
