Wiring Leds, Need Some Help

[wy3134]

I cannot seem to find any useful info on how to correctly do this, so perhaps some of you can give me some good pointers. I have 16 blue LEDs and want to wire them so they all work off one switch, but there going to be in different spots of the interior of my car, so can I do these in parallel or series? perhaps someone can point me to a diagram, and LMAO i forgot which (+ or -) the resistor goes on. thanks for the help!

ok to answer some questions....you got a nice even number 16, you can put 4 in series and your going to have 4 sets....(4 sets of 4 leds in series)........now with all 4 sets you can put them in parallel and wire them up to one switch....do it this way and you wont need to worry about a resistor....(resistor goes on positive)

Its easier to just put resistors on all of them this way you can put them where ever you want with out worying if u have them hooked up in the right circut. I did it that way in my car and they work perfrctly. As soon as i figure out how to post pics ill put em up.

By the way where are you thinkin about putting them?

Im gonna replace the neon tubes under the dash on both passenger and drivers sides, then IDK where else, kinda depends on how my interior project develops and how I design the back seat possibly.
