Custom Dynamics Light Questions!!!!!

[finless]

The detection of a burned out light is current based. You have to understand resistance in "parallel" and how it effect current and total load resistance.

Lets say the left turn signal is a total of 100 ohms stock. Lets say the LED strip is also 100 ohms. When you add a LED strip in parallel with the 100 ohm stock light, the total resistance is now only 50 ohms total because you have "split" it in two load paths.

Make sense now?

Best Advice!

Thanks Cruzr Joe, I saw that on several threads and I tried that 3 times but never saw a flash...I held down the hazard for over a minute with no luck.

Let your dealer install them. They work perfectly!:yes::yes::yes:

I'm saving a TON of $$$ and Not as much satisfaction or fun in that! But you do get someone else to blame if it ain't right...so there's that!

Thanks for this info Bob! I understand what you wrote, but as for the class notes....It's going to take a quiet room and some real concentration to noodle that through....
