Default RAW stealth tail light problems

Somehow over the winter my RAW stealth tail light got messed up. The left and right got reversed and it blinks out of pattern. And no I did not wire it wrong. It worked all summer and when I parked it. I also soldered all the wires when I installed it. Any ideas on where to get a new module for a good price?

Contact raw and tell them what happened. They might have modules. I havent had any problems with my raw lights. Good luck.

I got mine from ChromeGlow.com
LED Flexible Arrays Light Bar with Turn Signals - Chrome Glow

Not sure if they're actually the same manufacturer or not, though.

Here, in this Video... I have the one I used on it, SDC, and it is the same RAW uses... You can order it directly from them. But, as others said... try RAW first, see if they'll replace it... if not, it is only 50$ or so...

I Have the raw stealth tail-light , have had several issues with mine as well but they have always been very helpful and have sent me any of the needed parts at no cost to me , I've had mine in almost a year now and have run over 12,000 miles, here in FL. we ride year round. but i do like the LED Flexible Arrays Light Bar with Turn Signals - Chrome Glow and will go ahead a replace the light strip 14.5"strip with yellow turns and keep the mounting hardware that raw design has it's a good fit and sturdy.

Call Radiantz, talk to Drew, I put my orders through him..

The actual length should be closer to 17.8" with the bend (I measured on the lip of my aluminum piece before ordering), so... 140 LED's /5 * .6 + 1" = 17.8"... or + 1/2"? for 17.3... thinking the end pieces are only 1/4" long... can't remember off of the top of my head..

I forgot to ask, does the LED strip in the RAW unit come pre-glued to the bracket?

I know that the LED strips are very sensitive to being bent while cold, if you are bonding your strip to a bracket without proper warm-up the connections between the LED's can snap, causing outages. This is a HUGE warning with most LED array install procedures. because the backing (the way it is described) is like a circuit board rather than flexible wire. If you bend it cold it breaks the circuitry, but flexing it while warm will just bend it.
