Putco LED Light Bulb Load-Resistor Kit - Aluminum

Putco Accessories and Parts - P230004A

Guard against LED-related turn signal problems with this load-resistor kit. Simple, effective system builds resistance that corrects flash timing, thereby preventing the "hyperflash" phenomenon that occurs with LED indicators.

Features:

• Fixes hyperflashing or burned-out bulb indicators on turn signals with LED lights
• Has compact design for tight applications
• Installs quickly and easily
• Works with most import and domestic vehicles
• Constructed of aluminum

Specs:

• 6 Ohms
• 50 Watts
• Lifetime warranty

Please Note: One kit is required for each LED bulb used in turn signal applications.

Because LED bulbs have little resistance on their own, they create a "hyperflash" situation when used in turn signals. This fast flashing is similar to what your factory signal light does when the bulb is about to burn out. To prevent this phenomenon, install a load-resistor kit along with your new LEDs. This kit will build additional resistance in the line to correct the flash timing, resulting in a properly functioning indicator.

• Why does the # P230004A Load Resistor to Prevent Hyper Flash Turn Signal Get So Hot
  
• The Putco LED Light Bulb Load-Resistor Kit - Aluminum, item # P230004A, is designed to get hot. It can be explained like a dam. The result of a dam holding back water is pressure, so the dam has to be built to withstand that pressure. The load resistor is holding back power and the result of holding that power back so it does not get to the LED lights is heat. The load resistor is built to dissipate the heat caused by holding back the power and aluminum transfers heat to the air around it ver

• Are Load Resistors Needed on a 2010 Nissan Rouge when Installing LED Blinkers
  
• Yes, you will need a Load Resistor, item # P230004A, at at least two lights that you plan to install on your 2010 Nissan Rouge, if after installing the LED blinkers you have a hyperflash situation. If you still have hyper flash with two resistors installed you will need to install 2 more resistors at the other lights. You should install the LED blinkers first to determine if the resistors are required on your vehicle. You will not need to calculate the Ohms, the resistor is built to build res

• Should Load Resistors be Grounded to the Vehicle Frame or an Existing Ground Wire
  
• The ideal location to ground anything would be to the metal frame of the vehicle in the nearest corrosion free bare metal surface. However, if there is a ground wire near by you could try it out and see if it offers a sufficient ground. If you still get hyper flashing then a better ground location could be needed. I have included a link to the installation details for the load resistor # P230004A for you. These resistors are also available in a pair, # P230004A-2.
