moxy1962 Posted November 25, 2021 Posted November 25, 2021 Has any one found a replacement or solution to burnt out reverse lights?
1nolaguy Posted November 26, 2021 Posted November 26, 2021 I replaced mine with LEDA. Same with turn signals and break lights.
1nolaguy Posted November 26, 2021 Posted November 26, 2021 For our rv I believe the oem bulbs were 1156 & 1157 type. I just bought LWD versions at Advanced Auto.
Rikadoo Posted November 26, 2021 Posted November 26, 2021 Thats strange to burn out reverse lights… i think in my pick up over the last 10 years i have burned 1 out. Its funney you should mention replacing bulbs, i had changed the sockets to accept the latest version bulb… the socket was so big that when the bulb was in it stuck out too far so i had to put the old style back in… So givin the bulbs lack of brightness i have decided to “upgrade” my lighting option, Now im not going to connect them to the reverse light circuit, instead im going to connect my add on bulbs to the docking light circuit. These lights will mount to the reciever hitch frame in the rear. I figure these lights will be awsome when hooking up my truck on the dolly or assist when backing up. I bought them on amazon an were inexpensive.

Twomed Posted November 26, 2021 Posted November 26, 2021 Google...GE 18350 or GE H4360 if you want halogen. Standard 4x6 worklight still used in tractors, trucking "worklight bulb"
