I had a set of ZKW with DDE enhanced that Im swapping out for ZKW with DDE Chromiums. Anyway, the passenger side DDE's light up when I turn the lights on and when I arm/disarm my alarm they flash. The driver side DDE's only work when I arm/disarm the alarm, not when I turn the headlights on. What the hell? If theyre getting the signal from the blinkers to flash when the alarm is turned on/off, why wouldnt they work when the headlights are turned on?
From what I recall (when connecting up my city lights [daytime running lights]) that there are two positive wires going to the corner lights. And, I do think that one of the feeds controls the "blinking" aspect and the other is for standard "on" mode. (I could be way off on this). Anyway, maybe you either have a short in your corner turn signal bulb, or maybe you have tapped into both hot feeds somehow? Just guessing.Originally Posted by mbanks21

Im guessing the wiring that keeps the DDE/blinker in the "on" position shorted out. The "blinking" wire still works. Either way, I just ran a wire over to the other side and it works fine
Excellent!Originally Posted by mbanks21
Are you sure you tapped the constant on in the corners, not the blinker?Originally Posted by mbanks21
