hi guys. i fitted a secs monitor a few weeks ago and as you know you get a green led to put somewhere in your dash.

now i put a 8mm led just above my boost gauge as you can see in one of the pics in my photo album on here.

i ran it in-line/paralell with the secs one. it worked a few times then blew. i was told it could be that the secs monitor led has a resistor in it, which i think it does, but i dont want to pull of the insulation on it to find out and possibly break that one too.

anyway i was also told that the led is 5 volts and it needs a resistor to run with 12 volts, but which one.

they have colour codes don't they?.

does anyone know which one i should buy so i can solder in on.
