Projector LED/halo wont light

Hey guys, so I'm in the final stages of hooking up my new projectors. The only issue is that the middle LED and the "inside" halo ring wont light up. Any thoughts of what the issue could be?

Yea, I've got the 1st gens.

I'll see how the other side comes out. If they all work, maybe I'll just knock out an LED/halo so they'll match haha

the third gens are led halos too.. the only ones that is diff is the ccfl's and when they work they are really bright and look good.. well just the halos on em do.. im not a fan of the light bar and placement of the leds on em though..

lol no man dont do that.. i think there is a way to change em out.. i have the third gen so i couldnt tell you how to though.. i think there may be a how to on it though.. sounds like a bad connection though..

^^Haha yea I'm not actually going to mess them up. I can always spend a few (more) bucks and buy some LEDs. I just don't get why the Halo ring isn't lighting up. I haven't heard of it happening before.

Damn man I am sorry to hear your having troubles. Like I said in the PM I sent, when I first hooked up the lights the middle LED didnt work but I re-did the wireing and they were fine, I never had a issue with the halos. I hope you get it all working!

Yea me too. It'll just take some time whenever I can find some. A little frustrating, but no biggie. The world will go on.
