Sequentials - 1 side ALMOST not sequencing
UPDATED BELOW
So the Stang has been sitting in the garage for the past few weeks due to the weather and I was checking a few things on her before dinner, and remembering a few recent threads about sequence tail light issues, so just to be sure...
Yeah, my drivers side is sequencing so fast you almost don't notice it. The other side works fine. The bulb filaments are all working fine; I checked them with the parking lights on and then the brakes.
Before I tear into the panel and start troubleshooting, I figured I'd Google it but still no luck. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Update:
Disconnecting the harness and lamps and reconnecting didn't help. I contacted AM and since I'm still within the 1 year warranty they're sending me a complete replacement kit along with the shipping label and RMA # to return the defective set.

That sounds like the exact same problem I have, except for me on the passenger side. I've heard about so many problems lately I almost don't even want to try to fix them, thinking about just getting rid of them....

No, they're way to cool of a visual mod. If I can't figure it out, I'll call whomever it was I bought them from (brain fart...). I've heard that some vendors will simply ship a replacement.

i had the same problem .. with my CDC it was my passenger side.. Disconnect all of them. pump the brakes a few times RE-install the seqentials in there and then try them again ! Something about them being able to reset once you uninstall them and reinstall them... what every the crazy mojo majic that i did worked ! Worst case you have a bulb going out and while you have them all out any way...Just replace all the bulbs it 4bucks for a pack of 2 !

Bulbs are good or not. No if's. Both filaments light. When I have it apart I'll do what else you suggested but I'll also "exercise" the bulbs in and out of their sockets to clean the contacts. Hopefully they'll reset like yours did. Thanks!

I had the same issue with my WebElectric set. Try a force reset - turn or right blinker for ten minutes. This worked, for a while. Got a replacement set, had issues, got a refund. I love them, but didn't want to mess with them off/on.
