That's because you put the bulb in backwards.

Take the assembly back apart. Take the dim bulb(s) out and turn it 180 degrees then plug it back in. Check to make sure they are all working correctly before you reinstall everything.

That should fix it.

I know cause I did the same thing!

well the turnin of the bulbs did helkp cuz i noticed they are only made for one way, but i got fed up and put it back to normal so i culd atleast drive around, but problems arose when i was tryin to get it all back to normal...first of all the right turn signal wuldnt work,the flasher clickedoddly, so i figured it was that, but when i changed it it still had the problem and i noticed that without the seauential modules...both tailights still lit up when signalling!!! then i changed the turn signal bulb on the roght side and all was good, so now im back to regular...im gonna try one more time... and ideas or advice...???????

Dang, that sucks man. I noticed that they only went in one way too, but the sockets that came with the kit didn't prevent them from going in the wrong way, so of course, I put them in the wrong way. I think it was two on one and one on the other, but it was a quick fix for me.

You should e-mail Damion and see what he recommends.

Good luck!
