keep in mind, you don't have to wait for the led to go out, this just gives you a referance to when they are on or off. If it's cold, wait longer, if it's 35degrees, I wouldn't wiat 2 minutes.

They are actually supposed to be on when it is running IIUC so you SHOULDN'T wait for it to go out.

I've waited the whole time, when you crank her over, it will come back on if needed.

I've seen a couple of your posts today, are you just having a bad day?
I like KNOWING what my GP's are doing so this is a waste of time? OK, that's fine, it's my time, I'll waste it thank you.

i think they cycle based on engine temperature, IIRC. if the engine temperature is less then 135* or something like that they cycle.

Did the LED light mod on Sun. Nice addition to the A-pillar ! Notice the o-ring on the light.
