LED Switchbacks


Recommended Posts

Can anyone explain what wires to tap into to get the resistors to work? And any tips for mounting the resistors in the engine compartment(including the mounting plates)?
Pictures of your mounted resistors would be helpful.
I'm going to be ordering the 3 ohm as I put amber LED bulbs in all 4 turn signals.
Here are the Amber LEDs I got from VLEDS: LED AMBER VLEDS - They are super bright but have hyper flash every once and awhile when using the turn signals but

if I turn on the hazards there is no hyper flash. Wish I could just change the turn signal relay or module instead of mounting the resistors.

 

Thanks for the help!

Sorry to hijack, but if I plan on putting LED in all 4 turn signals do I only need the resistors in one location? i.e. Can I put the resistors in the front when I put the switchbacks in and have the rear's not hyper flash?

 

Thanks,

Russ, If you look at VLEDS page, you would need to switch to 3ohm resistors to cover all 4 bulbs. But it would be an easy swap if you had the 6ohm in there already.

You would only need 1 pair of 3 ohm to cover all 4 bulbs.

Sorry, no... that applies to vehicles that have the front and rear turn signals on the same circuit for each side (i.e. the good old fashioned mechanical turn signal switch). The Edge has separate computerized circuits for each bulb so you will need four 6-ohm resistors - one for each corner.
