Just popped some new bulbs into the 'Prelude rear light' in the back window on my 4th, unfortunately I get nothing, with the sidelights or the brakes.

Has anyone been through the mission of tracing the OEM wiring for this and knows where it all leads? I can't find anything in the manual for this (JDM Yo). I'm hoping someone can save me stripping half the interior (again).

When you find out tell me too...
mine gave up. No live feed to it and no fuse anywhere in the car...

Just a thought, but pop off the roof panel and check the wires. Mine didn't work and when I checked, the wires had been pinch/cut with the roof panel..

The wiring in the roof is ok, I hope so anyway as I've just put it all back together.

Well, I've just found the wiring diagram in the manual for it's use as a high level brake light (P23-257), looks like two green/blue wires should feed it from each of the rear lights, so I'll have a dig around the rear lights later to see if I can find anything.

@Dbo Ok, so there are 2 green/blue wires in the n/s rear light cluster (top left and top right of the connector), cutting these and splicing them into the red/yellow wire means it now works with the sidelights.

Cheers m8... will give it a go.....

Well done - I hadn't got to the bottom of this on Lisa's either!

Yeah, easier than I thought, if you want this as a brake light, splice the wires into the green/white wire on the same connector instead of the red/yellow.

I retro fitted mine. I did a write-up
Can't remember how now though.
Pretty sure I just spliced into the rear sidelights.

Just done mine... at last all working
need some ultra bright blue 501 bulbs as tint is too dark to see it....
