Default Led number plate bulbs

Bought some to brighten up the back of the car , fitted and noticed the driver side one is out. Swapped the bulbs and the bulbs are fine so it must be the wiring or something ... Anyone had this , is there a easy fix. I am shocking at anything electrical havent a clue where I start ...


Thanks in advance. Chris

yeah they're not the brightest but they omit a nice white light usually. They do have a positive and negative terminal as suggested. If you want amazingly bright then I suggest CREE or COB found here: http://www.auto-lites.co.uk/led-number-plate-bulbs
