Unfortunately does not work on Honda Odyssey

Unfortunately this LED does not solve the problem it was designed for. The problem with turn signal LEDs is that the car's electronics are designed for the typical resistance of incandescent bulbs. . LEDs use less power and have a higher resistance. This lightbulb is so expensive ($40 when I bought it) because it was supposed to solve this problem in some way (I think if some current flows through the resistor it actually burns out, mimicking the resistance of a standard lightbulb ). . However, that's not the case: while it worked initially, the turn signal started flashing in a dangerous high-frequency mode at odd times, indicating something was wrong with the bulb (I think it meant it was time to replace it). the blown bulb). This happened when I was standing at an intersection waiting for a turn (that is, after a while) or at awkward moments when I applied the brake at the same time. After some driving it happened on both sides. We have a relatively new Honda Odyssey. This bulb is described as being designed for this car (or our car is just being used as an example of where it should work). I've spent quite a bit of time looking at reviews and options for LEDs. This LED gets 1 star for a steep price and it doesn't solve the problem for which it was designed
