Anyone know how I would go about changing the front security led from red to blue. And no i dont mean "get a blue led and change it".

Thanks in advance

 

how else would you change a red l.e.d to a blue l.e.d except for replacing the red one with a blue one?

 

He means specific details on HOW to go about changing it...how it comes apart, etc. He knows he needs to put a blue one in place of the red.

 

"here's my sign!"

 

MrGypSy Has hit the nail right on the head I am looking for instructions on how to get to the led once there I think I can handle the rest. Or even a way to disable it would be ok.

It just looks bad because I have blue leds for my alarm in the A Pillars and blue flash then a red flash looks terrible.

 

bump.....

 

A piece of silver duct tape will work!

I'm just kidding of course... excellent question. I hope someone can get it answered for you. Let us know if you figure it out!

Anyone?

 

How about changing your alarm's led lights from blue to red? Try reversing the wires on the wiring harness for the led light. I think in my Code Alarm installation book, it said you could change the color by reversing the + and - wires for the LED. I'm not sure what alarm you have, but that might be possible.

 

I appreciate the reply but, the blue looks so much better than red. Also if you reverse the polarity the led shouldn't work seeing as how the anode and cathode have to be hooked accordingly for the led to generate power. I could be wrong though it wouldn't be the first time.

 

Steve and ASCii are both right! Steve, that kind of led is an special one, there are 2 LEDs inside the clear encapsulte, then if you swich the terminals, then one don't work and the another start to work!

ASCii You are right in "normal LEDs there is only one, if you inverty the terminals, it dosn't work.

I don't know how is the assembly of the led, but it sees like a plastic cap, take away and put the new one, be carefull to see the polarity. see the new LED and one have a larger pin than another, the larger is the +.

Still looking for some help on taking the dash on the driver side apart to get to the led. Anyone have any assistance on this for me?
