Default light bar and lights.

I just got this light bar and these lights from ebay. One light barely light up so the seller is sending me another one. Otherwise I like it. Oh plus I finally moved my cb antenna and got rod of the topper/ camper. Lol

Make sure you have enough power to the lights before assuming it's the light that is bad. It is only 12 volts on battery, 14 volts running so there is a high resistance. You need a good size wire to power them, especially if you are using all 4 on the same feed.

Also, those look like they're just bulb lights. You can get replacement bulbs for cheap, which is an easy fix. Also an easy way to get more light out of them as long as the housing can handle the extra heat. And the wiring is rated for it.

Thwy are built in HID 8" lights and there are two wires for four lights making it 2 lights per relay. And they work best with the motor running. I've even tried the bad one on different circuts.
