Description of iBrightstar 50W 6ohm Load Resistors: ๐Ÿ’ก Resolving LED Bulb Hyper Flash & Error Code

2PCS 50W 6ohm Load Resistors + 4PCS Quick wire Clip. Prevent LED Turn Signal Lights or License Plate Brake Lights from hyper flashing, malfunction or trigger warning message on dashboard. NOTICE! Load Resistors heat up like light bulbs and get super HOT when working. Make sure you mount them away from any wires or plastic. One resistor is required for each turn signal bulb or each license plate light bulb. Easy installation. Just connect the wires with the splice taps provided and no wire cutting is necessary.

They are not suitable for lighting and lighting accessories

I bought these to stop Hyperflash after installing LED bulbs in my Ford Fusion. They lasted less than a week and both fried at the same time. When they have stopped working, the LEDs in the circuit will no longer light up. I disconnected the resistors and the LEDs started working again (hyper blinking but lit). I replaced them with Sylvania resistors, double the price, but everything is back to normal. I've noticed that the Sylvanias are about 50% larger than these, so I'm guessing theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Excellent Overall Performance
Cons

4 years later - Blinker

I had to replace a resistor I bought 4 years ago. I installed 6 of these in August 2016. Pair for 2 front indicators. 2 pairs for 4 rear indicators. In August 2020, one failed (the meter reads 2.4 ohms, not the listed 6 ohms. They were all attached to the metal body of the car to dissipate heat. These resistors prevent excessive flickering when switching from incandescent to LEDs. The installation All 6 was tricky because the mounting hole is right on the shoulder of the resistor body so evenโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • New competitors appeared

Travel would be helpful

Ultimately a 5 star rating because they did what they were supposed to do. Mine didn't come with any instructions. I'm neither an electrician nor a mechanic, although I can do both. I didn't realize that the terminals were doing the work of stripping the wires, so I wound up creating more work than necessary. I had just never seen a clamp like this before and didn't use my thinking brain until I started. The clamps work great. However, I broke one and just used a wire nut and that worked tooโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Super easy installation, just what I needed.

After figuring out where and how to install the resistors and all the prep work, this was exactly what I needed to retrofit the LED turn signals to stop the excessive flickering/flashing. Costs less than upgraded LEDs and a resistor kit combined, so after a little searching and research (youtube) it makes sense. I installed a resistor in a metal case in the engine compartment with two self-tapping screws, each coated with Loctite. On the other side I couldn't find a good spot or angle to drillโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Frequency

[Hyper Blinking] LED Turn Signals Fixed! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Highly recommend these resistors! I'm so glad these resistors eliminated my hyper flashing LED turn signals! At first I was skeptical about installing it myself, but this attached photo I found really proved invaluable. Since you're here and obviously willing to go to the trouble of doing it yourself (do it yourself), I'm just passing the torch on because you would do the same. I easily saved $200 by doing everything myself instead of paying a mechanic to do it. Why pay hundreds when you can do

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • High price

Fits 2004 Chevy Venture LED DRL/Turn Signals

Resistors worked as advertised. You will need to print out the instructions to ensure you have installed them correctly for your vehicle make/model/year. I found mine easily and then connected them. I think they may include general installation instructions for use with traditional turn signals or combination DRLs and turn signals (two-wire or three-wire connection). You'll need to make sure you fully engage the connector with a pair of vises, but be careful. In order not to break theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Long Lead Time

SO WHAT HAPPENED.

I ordered these and a flashing module and a knit sweater something about faster shipping and using individual boxes and yadayada. Anyway, the point was to try and stop my new LED lights from flashing excessively on my Ford F150. So I order stuff and in about 2 hours I find them for $4 cheaper at my local corner store after going down the youtube rabbit hole and finding that replacing the flasher module is the best way to go to stop the hyperflash. I'm buying a turn signal, I don't need a set of

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Modern
