does anyone know how to rewire your bumper lights so that they stay on and then flash when i signa?, i currently have 1 piece headlights and sidemarkers
take the bumper signal lamps and cut the power wire. make sure to cut the wire pretty far from the bulb socket to give you some length to work with.
get some extra wire and extend power wire from the bumper signal lamp and run it up towards the corner lamp.
now, if you didn’t use the blinking bulb socket from the USDM headlights (the amber portion of the corner lamp assembly) into the JDM headlights, it’s probably just dangling (or taped up) there, right? I’m assuming that you used it for your sidemarkers.
either way, you’re going to take that power wire you extended from the bumper signal lamp and splice it into the power wire of that blinking bulb socket of the corner lamp. i recommend using some sort of connector (i think it’s called a T-connector or something, should look like a T anyway) instead of taping it up so it won’t give you problems later.
so the setup should be: the power wire from the bumper light is spliced into the power wire to the USDM blinking corner light, and depending on how you ran your sidemarkers, those should be running to the blinking corner light too.
hope that helps
Ditto the above…
The right front turn signal pos.(+) lead is green/yellow, [cut as far from bulb as possible].
The right front side marker pos.(+) lead is green/red, [it’s the one you want to connect the right turn signals green/yellow to].
The left front turn signal pos.(+) lead is green/blue, [again, cut as far from bulb as possible].
The left front side marker pos.(+) lead is green/white, [connect left turn signals green/blue to it].
BTW, a soldered connection is the best way to go, relays may be needed. 94
cool, thanks guys, i’ll be trying that soon, i’ll let you know how it comes out, thanks again
sorry to bring up an old thread but i am having trouble doing this. im trying to have the front bumper signals to be on step one and two on the light switch and also blink when the turn signals blink. so i tried first on the right side. i took a long wire and then i cut the green/yellow wire from the bumper signal and i connected it to the long wire. then i took that long wire and i ran it up to the green/red wire from the turn signal next to the headlight. i stripped the plastic from the wire and then i soldered the long wire to the green/red. so i wanted to see if it works but nothing happens. both bulbs dont turn on or blink or anything. so i double checked and triple checked my conections and they r all good. then i wanted to see if i disconected the long wire from the gree/red, if the turn signals next to the headlight work and they do with no problem. so while i had my headlights on and the right turn signal on i took the long wire and i touched the green/red wire. as soon as i do that they both dont work. HELP PLEASE. thanks and sorry for the long post
I wonder if it is a current issue.
See if the side marker power lead, [green/red] will trigger a relay, along with side marker.
Using a standard automotive SPST or SPDT relay connect #85 of relay to ground and using the jumper lead, [then i took that long wire ] connected to #86 of relay, touch it to the green/red of side marker, with signal or hazard light on.
If relay clicks connect #30 of relay to batt, [fused 5A] and #87 of relay to the signal light, [bumper light] power lead.
You will need two relays,one foreach side. 94
To be on and blink, you need to remove the ground and connect to the parking light red/black. The parking light provides the ground path for the turn signal and the turn signal the ground path for parking light.
When the parking light is on it provides 12v to the bulb and the turn signal off provides provides the ground, the bulb lights. When the turn signal is turned on the the circuit is interrupted by removing the ground and light shuts off and blinks.
When parking light is off the bulb is grounded by the parking light circuit and when the turn signal is on it applies 12v, the bulb blinks.
The corner blinker lights grn/red and grn/wh are outputs from the ICU and are meant to drive a 5w bulb. I rather doubt it will last very long on a bigger bulb.
To do it properly. you need to replace the single fillament bulb with a dual fillament bulb. Dim bulb for running light and bright for turn signal.

i know you guys get this question alot but i need a little clarification!
i’m wiring my bumper lights to stay on with my headlights this weekend, hopefully.
So i just strip the power wire of my bumper light, extend it and splice to the corner turn light? is that right?
Yeep!
thankks! will let u know if i run into problems this weekend!
this would be so much easier and clearer if there were pictures or something…
i want to do this but i have NO idea where to start and these directions are hard to follow for me…
=[

yeah same here!!!
i tried it yesterday…
both my corner lights and my bumper lights have a green and black wire.
i tried extending the black from the corner to the black of my bumper light, tried it with the green too, and like every possible combination, but it wouldn’t work!
then when i put it to factory setting… my corner lights would blink when i use my turn signal… but my left one won’t blink with the hazard switch anymore.
help please!
The front side markers, [corner lights] are controlled by the ICU, so so if they work for any one function, [park lights, signal lights, hazard lights] but not one of them, [ left front side marker/hazard] then the problem is the ICU.
The problem with getting the front signal lights, [bumper lights] to work like the front side markers, is “load”, my guess is the ICU can not supply the current two bulbs would need, installing a relay for each side should solve the problem.94
bump for someone to put a write up with pictures…
bump for ^^^^^^
If you look at the wiring diagram for a 1992-1993 Integra, I thought you could remove the four sidemarkers wires out of the ICU and bypass it so that the sidemarkers work in sync with the bumper signals (as opposed to alternating). It’s to my surprise that two of the wires are external to the ICU and the other two are internal (hardwired). That blows that theory out of the water. I’m gonna look into it some more and keep you all posted.
