Projector lights issue/ IS350 2012
Hii guys, i have an is350 2012. I bought the car recently with ISF headlights on them. The problem is that the Bottom white led strip wont light up at all however the orange indicator strip works perfectly fine. Anyone here who knows what might be the issue?

The headlights you have are not the original headlights that came on the car. No 2011+ IS250/350 has an orange LED strip. Which, honestly is a bit odd since the IS350 of those years came standard with the HID/LED strip headlights so I have no clue why the original owner would of swapped the headlights for cheap aftermarket junk just to have an orange strip.

Like Zmon Stated,
OEM led headlight won't have orange turn signal light. On top of that, The shape and quality of those aftermarket light nothing match OEM. Most of us (whose do conversion LED headlight) will re-pin or re-wire to make the LED light strip turn on whenever the ING is on.
I bet your headlight is just plug and play (without re-wire) so you would need to turn the light switch to parking light - one click before for turning on the low bean - to turn on the white LED strip

Thankyou guys for your input.

The Spec-D LED headlights you have are prone to failure mostly like the LED's burned out. The orange light you are seeing is a separate bulb that is just reflecting on the LED strip. Your only option is to order a new replacement or bake the headlight and fix the LED's.
