Odd thing happening on my boatmate trailer LED turn/tail light, the left turn signal is not working but the tail light is on (you should all laugh a little now because I try "not" to take a route with a left turn as much as I can). So had my father take a look at it with his volt meter and he checked both the receiver adapter wiring as well as the trailer light and told me that I must need a new unit for the tail/turn signal.
So I go on boatmate's replacement parts website and look at their LED lights and the only thing I find that matches is this: http://www.boatmateparts.com/products/LED+Lights+and+Grommets-tag-LED+Lights+and+Grommets/LAMP%2C+OVAL+TAIL-LED+%28AMBER%29-t-60-1033.htm
but that is in an AMBER casing and my light is RED. I didn't look to much into the light so I don't know whether or not, nor how easy it would be, to swap the red casing onto the new light with the amber casing. I just thought I would find a direct replacement. Called boatmate earlier and there phone customer service is pretty lame, basically sends you to the service/parts managers voicemail and he tells you on the message to email him. I emailed them tonight and figured I ask around here to see if anyone else has had to replace these lights and if so did you go through boatmateparts and what was your experience and if not how'd you replace it?
