    I recently got these Rigid LED pods and also ordered the Cali Raised LED pod fog light mounts. I ordered the wiring adapters as well so it would be plug and play, I go to install them and they won’t turn on! Checked all plugs, and nothing. Am I missing something?

    LED's are Polarity Sensitive.

    Is there any way that you can get the (+) and (-) backwards?

    Did yah check the fuses? You can bench test them too. Some LEDs also require a booster pack, but I don’t know that brand.

    Checked fuses and they were fine. Plugged stock fog lights back in and they work no problem.
