1141 LED bulbs don't work????

I have tried replacing my standard 1141 bulb in my porch light with a 1141 LED replacement bulb but it will not work once I install the LED bulb. I have tried several different bulbs from different sources but none seem to work. I know the bulbs work because they work in my front cap light, that is the exact same fixture but instead of a orange lens it has a clear lens. Does anyone have any suggestions or have you had this problem too?

You might need to change the wires on the back of the light. The electricity has to flow in a certain direction on LED bulbs. Pull the light fixture out and switch the wires around.
