Default NEED HELP: LED Taillight Question....

Hello.

So long story short. I installed some LED taillights on my GS300. ONLY the OUTERS are LED.

When i brake, only my inners light up. The outers do not light up. Is that how it should be or is something wrong??

somethings wrong. Check your wiring. The led tails may be bad if everything is wired correctly
