LED's and strange wiring

Hey all,
I flew Jim Reeve down from Minnesota to help me with some
projects. I wanted to publicly thank him for his great work and let
you all know he's really a wiz at DeLorean wiring. One of the
projects was that we installed red LED third brakelights on my louver
by running the wires down the quarter panel and spliced them into the
brake light wires and the ground right before the plug that connects
them with the circuit board. They work perfectly. When the brake
lights come on, so do the red LEDs. I did the same thing with amber
LEDs for the turn signals. Wired the same way and sharing the ground
with the brakelights (from the plug going into the circuit board.)
The problem is when I hit the turn signal switch or the hazards
switch, the turn signals work as normal but the LEDs do not work along
with them. We checked polarity and they are wired just as the red
LEDs are, and the red ones work, just no joy on the amber ones.
Anyone have a similar problem or run into something like this? Let me
know, we're stumped!
Thanks,
Matthew

mechanically sound D.
