Installation & Troubleshooting
- Remove the instrument cluster or access the bulb/factory housing per your vehicle service manual.
- Take out the old socket by twisting or gently pulling depending on vehicle design.
- Insert the T5 LED bulb into the new wedge base socket — push it in until seated.
- Reinstall the socket into the gauge cluster or housing, securing with the twist-lock action if present.
- Test the LED. If the LED does not light up, remove it and rotate 180° — most LED bulbs are polarity sensitive, and reversing the bulb corrects the polarity.
- Reassemble the cluster and test all functions (indicators, backlights, gauge illumination).
Compatibility & Use Cases
These T5 wedge sockets are intended as direct replacements where the original bulb/socket uses the T5 wedge form factor. Typical uses include:
- Speedometer and odometer backlighting
- Tachometer illumination
- Warning and indicator lights (check engine, high beam, turn signals)
- Shifter and gear-position lighting
Because of the wide cross reference list, these sockets cover many legacy and OEM bulb numbers. Always double-check your vehicle's bulb specification or the existing socket size before purchase.

FAQ
- Will these fit my car?
- These sockets fit standard T5 wedge bulb openings with a socket hole diameter of 0.39 inches. Check your vehicle's existing bulb/socket size or cross reference the listed stock numbers to confirm compatibility.
- Can I use LED bulbs with these sockets?
- Yes — these are intended for T5 LED bulbs used in instrument panels and indicator lights. Keep in mind LEDs are polarity sensitive; rotate the LED 180° if it does not light immediately.
- Do these sockets require soldering or special tools?
- No. Most installs are plug-and-play using the factory housings and twist-lock or push-fit action. Refer to the vehicle service manual for cluster removal instructions.
- What if the LED still doesn't work after rotating?
- Confirm the LED bulb itself is functional by testing it on a known working socket or using a multimeter. Also check fuses and wiring for power to the socket.
