Has anyone wired up turn signal resistors....

has anyone figured out how to wire these things up. i've search and searched but have not found out the correct way. heres the link to the resistors i have...

tie one end onto the positive and the other end to negative.

Does it matter which side connects to the other cause both wires coming from resistor are black. Also I have 3 wires from turn signal socket would you happen to know which to use.

No, it dosent matter which way it faces. I believe the wire you tap into is green. Not 100% sure. best way is to use a test light to find out which wire is the turn

Yeah it's pretty easy if you aren't carful they can tear lose. Also they get hot so watch what they will be up against

Thanks for the fast response guys... I'll try in the morning to see if can get it done.

This diagram is incorrect. For the "Dual Intensity Bulb", one resistor lead would go to ground, but the other would go to the turn/brake lead (or just turn, as the case may be)...but not to the tail/running light. There would be no purpose for putting a load resistor on a tail light circuit.

I would have to agree.
