DOes anyone know what bulb # is used in the turn signals of teh altezzas???(dident no where else to post)

 

1156

or 1157

dual filiment is the 2nd number smile.gif

 

1156 for turn and reverse, 1157 for tail/brake

 

Front turns are dual filament because you have your parking lights and the signal....they are 1157, the rear turn are 1156. wink.gif

 

whoa tho man... i think the front turn signals (on a 2000 tibby) are 2357's... i am pretty sure at least... someone correct me if i am wrong here

 

man not again...another thread for bulb sizes - someone needs to make a sticky with all the bulb sizes in a chart so people can refer to it...maybe i'll do it later.

cdog, you probably got the #2357 from the sylvania website. that number is their reference number. if you go anywhere else, they sell em as 1157. Thus, 2357 = 1157. They're dual filament (if you look inside the bulb there are two sets of posts with two "springs"). At the base of the bulb, there are little nubs - in terms of distance from the bottom of the base, one should be higher than the other. If pictures are required, I will post them for reference...

 

i tried 1156 in them and it dident work at all i neither altezza

 

Depends which bulb chief, does it need a dual or single? If you are using it for signal you need 1156 if you are using it for parking/brake you need 1157....oh and reverse are 1156 too.

 

yes i tried the rear turnsignals with 1156 and would not work in either

 

Vince, I'm not sure what kind of problems you're running in to here, but the 1156 should work. It's a single filament bulb and that's all the turn signal needs - it's either on or off. Here's a cross-reference table - http://www.superlumination.com/ I'm not sure what else I can tell you... Make sure the bulb filament isn't broken and that your wire harness for the bulb is intact and working... Test with working equipment. Other than that, ummm I guess I'd have to look at it. :?:
