That sounds like the green wire came loose from the chip inside. A new LED should fix that.

I was thinking the same thing. Especially if he is running white normally.
Losing green briefly would be light purple while completely losing the green LED would be a darker purple.

night owl LED

so my NightOwl system has worked flawlessly for 3 years.. now the LEDs are starting to flicker on certain colors... Do I need new LEDs? Or a new controller?

So is that something you can provide me with and it will work with my system? Also you said the green wire may have come loose from the chip? Sorry but not sure what you mean by the chip. Thanks

Yes.

There are three "chips" inside the LED element: red, green, and blue. You can see them in this pic...



It's possible that one of the tiny wires inside that connect to the chip has come loose.

How do I go about buying one from you. I didn't see those on your page.
Thanks

It's a bit complicated as I believe there has been one change that NightOwl made along the way. I would need a photo of the connector that would plug into the LED harness. You can email the pic to tony @ sjmap.us.

2. What is the black box with the two sets of wires coming out each end? does it hook up somewhere?


Thanks
You need a master kit for that but I'd be glad to take it of your hands 😀

LOL...or you could get me the master.....

I would be willing to sell the module, I got a different controller, the rings are going in as soon as I feel brave enough to start cutting in to light.

Hey folks,


does anyone have the NightOwl App .api file for the iOS?


I bought myself a new Iphone 8, somehow the app didnt transfer (or not correctly) and i cant download it again cause it is gone from the store.




Means right now my halos are dead.




The NightOwl kit was one of the 2 best addons i did to my car. I hate the thought of it being gone, and that just because i cant get the app.
