Hey guys, I just recently put my stock rear signals back on my cr and noticed the the rear left signal is extremely weak all the other signals are good. Any ideas? I checked the wires and everything looks good. Any help would be appreciated.

Check the ground for the light. ground it directly to the battery and see if it changes anything.

It is very possible the signal itself is bad, the older revision of the signals had a high failure rate. I'd do what Shawns says, and also try swapping it with the other side or the front signals and seeing how it reacts.

On the bullet connectors is the male usually the ground wire or does it vary?

I believe it is the male. Usually the power is female(less of a chance of it shorting to ground).
