There's not a wiring diagram for the ARC Lighting Load Resistor for LED Lights - Quick Splice # ARC22VR however the installation is pretty simple.

All you're going to need to do is take one end of the resistor and connect it to the ground on your turn signal light, and the other end to the positive side of your turn signal. There is no negative or positive on the resistor so you'll just need to pick a side and begin with that.

Answer 1

Hey Mike, This is a relatively common but super frustrating issue and the solution comes in the form of load resistors like #DI34ZR. Installing a resistor on each of the circuits of your LED hitch cover will eliminate the error messages you're…

Hey Brandon, thanks for reaching out. If you’re looking for a load resistor that can handle the elements on a boat trailer, the ARC LED Load Resistor #ARC22VR is a solid option. It is not specifically rated as submersible, but it has an anodized…

Answer 3

Hey Mike, this is a pretty common issue with newer vehicles and LED trailer taillights unfortunately but there are ways to fix it. You can swap the trailer lights to incandescent like you mentioned or you can add load resistors like the part #ARC22VR…

Answer 4

Hi Chase, great question. For your setup, you’ll want to install one load resistor #DI34ZR (which includes two resistors) on each turn signal circuit (left and right) since those are the circuits that typically cause hyper-flashing or detection…

Answer 5

LED type trailer lights use very little power, about one-tenth the amount required by standard incandescent light bulbs. This can cause some wiring systems to not "see" the trailer lights because their current draw is so low. In some cases…

Answer 6

The LED taillights often have this hyperflashing issue. To solve it, you simply need to add a load resistor like #DI34ZR. You will need one resistor for each side and this kit comes with 2. This will draw more power from your system so you won't…

Answer 7

I have added a diagram for you which details how to install the Putco LED Light Bulb Load-Resistors #DI34ZR. The LEDs will have one power wire and one ground wire; all you need to do is tap one end of the load resistor into the power wire and the…

Answer 8

The Diamond LED Light Bulb Load-Resistor Kit #DI34ZR wires in parallel with each trailer lighting circuit. For a trailer with LED lighting (that does not present the same electrical load as an incandescent type bulb) you will wire one resistor inline…

Answer 9

Hey Christopher, thanks for reaching out! The WT21W LED Bulbs #ARC79GR you're looking at do not have a built-in resistor. For that you'll need the ARC Lighting Load Resistor for LED Lights #ARC22VR to prevent that hyperflashing.

Answer 10

Easiest way would be to add load resistors on each of the trailer wiring circuits with the part #P230004A. Each circuit would need a resistor so you'd need to install three.

Answer 11

What you'd need is a 7-way adapter that has diodes built into the circuits which will absorb the small voltage spikes you are seeing with your Land Rover. For that you'd just need the part #C57003 and you'd be set.

Answer 12

You'd really want to use a 3-to-2 wire converter such as the Roadmaster #RM-732 to convert the separate wiring on your 2010 Nissan Frontier to a 2 wire system like the #STL1211RCFHPG you were looking at is designed to work with. This will make it…
