Review on XtremeVision Flicker Resistor Decoder Error by Mike Barnes

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Buster Poindexter doesn't mind.

I installed these 9005/9006 anti-flicker resistors on my 2011 Dodge Avenger 3.6 and they appear to work as advertised, but the gauge also says "these resistors get hot" which is a ridiculous understatement . With an ambient temperature of 80°F, my temperature sensor reads 365°F on the aluminum body of the resistor and 231°F on the wires. Thermal paste in an attempt to remove excess heat!

Pros
  • Built-in 50W 6 ohm resistor and capacitor to fix error messages.
Cons
  • No Power
