Well, one would think. I installed the resistors ~7 years ago. Everything works as designed with the resistors installed on the brake line. I just pulled the resistors and the cruise control cancels when I use my turn signals. Interesting enough, the brightness of the brake and tail lights...
After refreshing my memory I found out a few things. The resistor was installed to correct a cruise control malfunction. Without the resistor, the cruise control turns off when using the turn signals. It also turns off when the brakes are applied.
The resistor was connected to the 12V +...
Thanks for your input. Interesting, some individuals have reported that they did not need a resistor when using these lights. From what you said this would indicate their DEPO tail lights had the correct output LED installed. I am going to remove my resistor to refresh my memory as to EXACTLY...
The rear DEPO tail and brake lights are built in LED panels. They are much brighter and clearer than OEM. In addition, you can run pretty high wattage reverse lights. I know I could run the old stuff but I like figuring this stuff out.
I would need to remove my tail light to find out. Do you have a recommendation on what I should use? I bought some resistors of eBay (I believe) recommended by thread on DEPO Led lights. I am trying to track that thread down but am not having much luck.
The "hyperflash" encountered when using LED turn signal is handled by a new flasher relay located in the driver's side kick panel. The inline resistor I have is on the brake circuit. The resistor I installed helped with the intensity of the rear driving lights vs brakes lights (at night). It...
I have DEPO rear led tail lights. I installed an inline resistor. I recently removed one of my tail lights and discovered the resistor had melted through the rear of the light housing.
Do all resistors get this hot? If I apply the brakes the resistor heats up fast. Too hot to touch.
If...
