    your running them from the alternator so its a alternating current not direct

    I'm guessing there's resistors already in them. Instructions told me to wire them to live. Battery should be ok, pretty new.

    lol. Looking at the flex ribbon there are because theres little squares that look like resistors with r1 , r2 and r3. And i cant really see why that would cause a problem.

    resisitors keep the power steady or summat lol only thing it could be is it is actually powering from the alternator

    Haha. Yeah. To be honest I think the regulators going because the battery struggles to keep its charge and with it being a newish battery I doubt the battery is dying.
