I have a set of LED sequential tail lights for my 2018 Ram that I paid good money for. ($650+ USD) Unfortunately after a year, one quit working and there is no warranty on them. What sucked is that I was on a 9,000 mile family trip and was literally the farthest point from home (live in WA and was near the border of MS and AL on the Gulf Coast. Luckily on the trip back, I had a number of people let me know it was out, but never got pulled over for it. I did use hand signals when possible, so that maybe helped.</p> <p>Of course there are two circuit boards on the tail lights. One handles the input and probably deals with sending the signal to either come on solid &quot;brake lights&quot; or go sequential &quot;for turn signals.&quot; Both the turn signal and brake light function do not work. There is a separate array of LEDS for the parking lights, those work just fine and use a different circuit from the truck, into the light.</p> <p>My troubleshooting consisted of comparing the components from the working passenger side light, to those of the drivers side light. Started at the input/wiring to the light and all checked out good until I got to a single 4 pin voltage regulator. (EDIT: Specs say 3 pin so I think the main solder lug I see is either for heat sink or mounting purposes) The passenger side allowed continuity on multiple pins while the drivers side (problem light) was open. My problem with this, is that I know in order to test this, you must isolate the components, yet I had it installed on the board still.</p> <p>Its labeled as Q1 and HT7550 on the board. The VR itself says 7550-1 S3K04G6. I couldn&#39;t find a direct match but did find a CLOSE one on <a href="https://Mouser.com">Mouser.com</a> couple months back but afraid to order it, pay $15 shipping, just to find out it&#39;s not the problem.</p> <p>Can I do anything else to help isolate this? Unfortunately I only have access to a volt meter and my battery in the truck will be my power supply. I have VNA&#39;s at work, but that won&#39;t help me out in this situation. LOL</p> <p>IF I cannot figure this out myself, is anyone willing to take a shot at it and repair it for me as a project? I will pay something at least, but if it goes beyond say $50, I&#39;m just gonna toss these...</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> &#32; submitted by &#32; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/PowerWagon106"> /u/PowerWagon106 </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/diyelectronics/comments/10mqtol/how_to_troubleshoot_tail_lights/">[link]</a></span> &#32; <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/diyelectronics/comments/10mqtol/how_to_troubleshoot_tail_lights/">[comments]</a></span></content><id>t3_10mqtol</id><link href="https://www.reddit.com/r/diyelectronics/comments/10mqtol/how_to_troubleshoot_tail_lights/" /><updated>2023-01-27T17:39:01+00:00</updated><published>2023-01-27T17:39:01+00:00</published><title>How to troubleshoot tail lights</title></entry><entry><author><name>/u/knutikk</name><uri>https://www.reddit.com/user/knutikk</uri></author><category term="diyelectronics" label="r/diyelectronics"/><content type="html"><table> <tr><td> <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/diyelectronics/comments/10mu2jn/looking_for_a_combined_12v_and_5v_stepup_unit/"> <img src="https://preview.redd.it/vqe7mmr6loea1.jpg?width=640&amp;crop=smart&amp;auto=webp&amp;s=f0f585843b133e65e37f2a63395b7105d939c88f" alt="Looking for a combined 12v and 5v step-up unit like this, but need the 12v outlet to always have priority over 5v outlet.

I live in a 220v country, and have a battery charger (skil cordless drill 12V if it makes a difference), which is 120 V. I connected it to the outlet but forgot to use the step down transformator, so now it doesn&#39;t work. What can I try and replace in order for it to work again?

Am I right? But what about the heating element or MOSFET, do they work with that voltage/ampere too? For the MOSFET I always see 5V at the Gate and 12V for the switching circuit, but can I regulate other voltages too with this MOSFET or what would kind of MOSFET would I need here?</p> <p>Basically I want a heating element to have constant about 35°C, controlled via arduino nano, PID and PWM due to a thermistor. All that it nicely fits together in a case so it can be attached to the hand or arm. So it should be a all in one light weight solution what I am looking for.</p> <p>&#x200B;</p> <p>&#x200B;</p> <p>EDIT:</p> <p>Could I also use such a modul for this purpose? <a href="https://amzn.eu/d/iMdZYHu">https://amzn.eu/d/iMdZYHu</a></p> <p>Like using my arduino nano on the left in the schematic there for PWM and GND and on the right I can also use my 18650 battery shield with 5V?
