Tim,=C2-LEDs operate on 3 volts or less. You cannot Supply an LED with mo
re than 5 volts at the very maximum. Generally you have to install a resist
or in the circuit to drop the voltage down to a safe level for the LED. Bot
tom line is you've probably destroyed that LED.

Hi Tim;
Try reversing the leads to the LED. Mine only lights in one direction of current
flow.
Cheers! Stu.

Hi Tim and Charlie;
It's a complicated world out there. I have an LED that works on 12 volts. Don't
know how that's accomplished, but Charlie has a good point. Need to find the
intended voltage.
Cheers! Stu.

LEDs operate on 3 volts or less. You cannot Supply an LED with more than 5 volts

Use an LED instead of incandescent volts warn light with B&C regulators.

If you have an LED that works on 12V then it is an assembly that includes a resistor
in series with the actual LED. These can be designed for any arbitrary voltage
that is more than the minimum for
the LED which is between 1.8 and 3.3 volts depending on the LED color. Just choose
a resistor that limits the LED current to less than the maximum rating at
the desired voltage. For instance, with a
red LED, which runs drops 1.8V designed for a 10mA current would use a ohm resistor.
(V/I = R : (12-1.8)/.01 = 666 ohms) Of course resistors come in discrete
values so in this case you would
probably use a 680 ohm resistor. One would also have to calculate the power rating
required for the resistor. (V*I = P : (12-1.8)/.01 = 0.102). In this case
just about any resistor you can buy will
work, but to be safe use a 1/4 watt rated resistor.
I may be wrong, but I seem to remember reading somewhere that the scheme you want
to use works if you put a resistor in parallel with the 12V LED that simulates
the load that the incandescent light
provides to the circuit. For instance if it is a 2W light running from 12V you
would use a 75 ohm resistor rated at for least 2W. (V*V/P = R : 12 * 12/2 = 72
ohms) You could also probably get away
with a higher value resistor as well. Experiment.

Hi Dick;
As you explain, my (red) LED must have a resistor in series.
My other point was that mine had a pos. and neg. connection and wouldn't work if
hooked up backwards.
Cheers! Stu.

Yes. The B&C controllers need TWO resistors to
orchestrate the incandescent to led conversion.
This is because the LS-1 has special circuitry
in the low volts warning circuit that causes
the warning light to glow if power to to the
control electronics is lost.
A 'sneak' current resistor inside the
controller is too small to cause an incandescent
lamp to glow but LEDs are happy to let
you know it's there.
This feature is an artifact of some fuzzy
thinking waaaayyy back when. We were doing
this on accessories I designed in the
80's
Actually, that feature could/should be removed
from the line of B&C products that included
it.
In the mean time, the schematic John cited
above is the work-around. I have updated
that drawing to show TWO configurations
for the conversion 1) DIY fabrication of
the LV WARN fixture using a rudimentary
LED bulb 2) incorporating an LED fixture
already fitted with the necessary resistor
for operation at your ship's system voltage.
