It would help if you used the correct terms. What do you mean by "running lights"?

Since you're a nooblet, you are unfamiliar with me and my research. Let's just say I've spent more time getting data on the Prelude than most people spend on their Bachelor's degree.

I have a similar question, i swaped my gauge cluster lights for leds, the ones i used are all 74, i put them all in and now the right half the cluster doesnt light up, and my back right turn signal doesnt blink, also my cluster turn signals are right green left blue, i think some of the leds arnt in the right way, but i dont know why that would shut off the back right turn signal.

nooblet

I THINK maybe the right side leds are all backwards, not completing the circit and thus not lettin energy flow to the back,
or blown fuse?

I did some wire tracing and one of the plastic connectors behind the taillight was slightly melted looking , got the daytime running lights working for awhile then the fuse went out again!
