If installing LED bulbs in your car or motorcycle causes your blinkers to blink fast or causes other electrical problems you may need to install a Load resistor to correct these problems.

Solve LED related turn signal problems such as hyper flashing or burnt out bulb indications with LED Load Resistor. Get yours now!

LOAD RESISTOR KITS

Since LED bulbs draw much less current then standard incandescent bulbs your electrical computer system may think that your bulbs are not working. This is a 6 Ohms 50 Watt resistor that needs to be installed in-line with your tail/blinker lights, one Load resistor is required for each tail/blinker light.


One LOAD Resistor is required for each turn signal bulb

6 Ohm, 50 Watt resistors can be connected across the turn signal bulbs to simulate the load of a regular filament bulb (2 Amp load). This will solve LED related turn signal problems such as hyper flashing or burnt out bulb indications. Resistor measures 1.96L x .64W x .60H inches, leads are 12 inches long.
Kit Includes gel filled moisture resistant splice taps.

CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS: Using included splice taps, connect one wire to ground and the other wire to the turn/brake hot wire. Splice taps allow for installation without cutting your turn signal wires.

 

Load Resistor Installation Instructions.

Insert wires in tab. Squeeze with pliers and snap shut the splice tab.

Use 2 Load Resistors if installing LEDs in turn signals of front only OR rear only (one resistor on each side).

Use 4 Load Resistors if installing LEDs in turn signals of front AMND rear (one per signal)

WARNING : Load Resistors heat up like a light bulb. Must be installed to make no contact with paint or plastic.
