So I bought a bunch of Ablaze bulbs from PinballLife for my Indy500.

None of the 1 LED #555s work when I swap them for regular bulbs, but when I put a 3 LED #555 in the same spot it works great.

Tried the 1 LEDs in the back box, inserts, GIs (anyplace they'd fit) with no luck.

Obviously I'm a noob when it comes to this stuff, so I'm just curious if there's something I'm missing here.

Thanks for all the great info, everyone.

I'll try a few more to see if I come across any that work (per NJGecko's comment) since I only tried 3-4 out of a bag of 50.

But I'll also try them in a different pin to see if that makes a difference (just to see if I'm going to have to return the 1 LEDs.

Either way, I'm going to buy a larger qty of the 3 LEDs. Have liked the way they look so far.
