[QUOTE="Geoff1946, post: 506488, member: 28452"] I'm getting confused now. My question about polarity was a shot in the dark as I can't think what could be causing the symptoms you report, but you haven't said how you've ensured correct polarity to your new led lamps. which MAY be relevant. The lamps you have given a link to are halogens, so presumably the ones you have removed? If I understand correctly you want to connect some new led lamps to a new led driver using the wiring that previously had halogen components. SO: What new led lamps have you obtained? Are the new lamps polarity sensitive? If it doesn't tell you on the packaging try one on a PP3 or similar 9 volt battery. If it only lights one way around you now know which is +ve. Check that the reconnected wiring is correct, such that all the lamp +ve go to the driver +ve.. [/QUOTE]
