Turn signal LED resistor...

[Smoove]

So, I learned the hard way that I need a resistor of sorts for my LED turn signals that I just installed in the back of the ride yesterday. lol. Fortunately I didn't do the fronts yet cause the HIDs haven't showed up yet.


Does anyone know who sells, or where I can find the what I need? It only makes sense I would need one on all four corners?

Thanks in advance. I did a search but, only thing I found where escalade tail light conversions.... which is another want lol. Not now though, already spent enough.

Thanks again.

Or a box, to convert?

Seems easy enough. 1 for each corner obviously right?

Thanks for the link!

Yep, one for each. I've only done the fronts, but it was one on each of those.

Btw, they get pretty hot, so it's best to mount them somewhere that they won't melt anything around them. Mine are actually hanging below the headlights behind the bumper where they don't touch anything.

And you're welcome!

Awesome VT...thank you!

One last bother,...the 1 x 6 ohm 1 x 6 OHM 50W 2 BULB LOAD EQUALIZER RESISTORS LED TURN SIGNAL BLINKER FIX | 1 PAIR

or

1 x 3 OHM 50W 4 BULB LOAD EQUALIZER RESISTORS LED TURN SIGNAL BLINKER FIX | 1 PAIR

I ment to ask yesterday but forgot.

Actually, go here: http://autolumination.com/equalizers.htm

Scroll to Load Equalizers / Resistors

Get the " Rated 25 watt LED Load Equalizer "

vleds looks like all they have are high wattage ones and those bulbs are only 25w

SWEET!

Very much appreciated!

Again, Thank you.

Are these needed for the LED tail light replacement bulbs that would fit into the stock light bulb sockets (found on ebay) or for a different LED taillight?

 

[07Burb]

They are needed for any light that flashes whether rear or front yes

You want the 6 ohm 50W models from V-LED's. They are able to dissipate twice as much heat (50W VS 25W). You're not looking to match the wattage of the bulbs, and no LED is even close to 25 watts. I also recommend finding a spot to mount them to the body, or better yet, use the mounting plates and then bolt them down to something, they will run much cooler.
