Question:
I have a 2008 landrover lr2. Im trying to install a light strip along the bumper that plugs into my 4 pin trailer connector, but it just flashes. I know there are 7-4 way adapters that correct this, but my vehicle only has a 4 pin connector. Is what Im trying to do even possible?

Expert Reply:
I do have an option for you, but there is not an adapter for a 4-way connector to fix the issue you are having with the LED light strip on your 2008 Land Rover LR2.
Instead you will need to install a Load Resistor in each of the 3 circuits in the light strip using the # DI34ZR. This will correct the flashing issue you are having.
I included a video of the # DI34ZR for you to take a look at.
