They're the OEM side markers and both aren't working. I highly doubt they broke in the process of swapping out the turn signals.
The DRLs should already be set to LED since I have the LED package from the factory.
Yes, I did have the halogens from the factory. Given that you already had LEDs from the factory, maybe the hyperlinking will go away once you get the side marker lights to work.
I ended up splicing the side markers to feed off pin 4, instead of pin 1 as explained on the bottom of this guide.
Im having the hyperflashing issue as well and my side markers are not working (the sequential turn signals are functional). I have the LED package, how did you get your side markers to work?
This is from the note on the bottom of the guide: "So for the premium models the side marker needs to be powered off pin 4 not pin 1. This would fix the issue with the side marker not working at all."
Fantastic artistic skills for sureThis is from the note on the bottom of the guide: "So for the premium models the side marker needs to be powered off pin 4 not pin 1. This would fix the issue with the side marker not working at all."
Pin 1 is the red wire and Pin 4 is the white wire.
Unfortunately, I can't take a picture of the wires because it's all taped up with electrical tape. However, I was able to invoke my artistic skills in MS Paint to show you how I did it. Hopefully it's clear enough to understand. FYI I used gray for the white wire for visibility. I spliced the red and white wires using these quick splices. Just make sure you close off the other end of the red wire.
There are a few ways (probably better) to do this but this is how I did it. As for the hyperflashing issue, you'll have to install resistors. The Retrofit Source (where I ordered the lights from) sent them for free of charge.

I was able to get a full understanding of what you meant now. Thank you very much!
Thanks for posting this...I'm having the same issue. I did have 2 questions you may or may not know the answers to:This is from the note on the bottom of the guide: "So for the premium models the side marker needs to be powered off pin 4 not pin 1.

UPDATE: I just installed the resistors I got from The Retrofit Source and they unfortunately did not fix the hyperflashing. Matter of fact, the DRL on the passenger side no longer works. This was the 3rd time I've taken apart the fenders to fix these lights. At this point, I'm probably gonna take em out and return em.
I tried reading this whole thread but taking too long. Question: I got mine installed last week (original was halogen) and now the turn signal lights stopped working and my dash shows turn signal out. The DRL have been working fine. If I use the tazer and set them to LED will they start working fine or is the tazer only for the jeeps that have the LED package already installed.
By premium edition, they mean the LED package from the factory. If you have halogen headlights then you won't have to splice anything. If you have the LED package then you have the "premium" edition.
Chris...thanks for the info. I assumed they were talking about the Morimoto lights and not what lighting option my JL has. BTW, I do have the LED option on my Jeep. What I meant in my second question was in regards to the white wire going into the Morimoto light. (I completely understand what you said that the white, pin 4, needs to power the side marker). What I don't know is am I using the Quick Splice to tap into the White wire or can I completely cut through the white wire, solder it to the red, and close off the other end of the white wire that goes to the Morimoto?
Ah I gotcha, yeah I'm not 100% sure what component the white wire powers up for the Morimoto lights. According to the wiring diagram for the base lighting, the white wire pin is supposed to be for the front park lamp. The red wire pin is for the side marker control. I'm not too clear what the difference is between park and side marker lamp so I can't answer your question. However, I can definitely say the quick splice does work and is also less damaging to the wires
