LED signal light

[sag0]

good day to all tsikoteers! i just have a problem regarding my front signal lights...

i recently bought a pair of LED cluster bulbs (white double contact) to replace my stock yellow bulbs (double contact din of course). nung nilagay ko na po, when i tried signalling left or right mabilis yung on-off nya (parang may ground or pundido) pero actually its working. mabilis nga lang. then i tried naka-on or naka-off ang park lights ganito pa din ang result. but when i try it using the hazard its okay naman. normal hindi mabilis.

what seems to be the problem here? is there any way i can have it fixed? sayang naman po yung bili ko 350 isa.

thanks! and nice community we have here!

hindi pwede gawing signal light ang LED! it will register as "busted" sa flasher relay...

bumili ka ng white bulbs nalang at ilagay mo yang LED mo sa ibang side..like reverse light(pero di maganda mag-illuminate ng road pag sa reverse..) or sa brake/park nalang..or kung meron kang side markers

hazzard is a different case....

[sag0]

ayun! thanks! so it simply means nasayang nga yung 700 ko hahaha!!!

another question po... hindi ba pwedeng i-alter yung flasher relay para gumana? hahaha sorry for being persistent nanghihinayang lang kasi ako sa pinangbili ko eh. oh well, lesson learned.

hmm maybe ilalagay ko na lang sa park/brake light ko yung LED. baka naman maganda ang kalabasan nun para at least hindi nasayang...

then bili na lang ako ng white double contact bulb for my front signal lights. any brand suggestion? and prices pls. may nakita ako raybrig 300 isa. or wurth 180 isa. ano po ang mas maputi ang light output sa kanilang dalawa? or meron pa bang other brands na mas maganda? thanks ulit!

wag ka nang magisip pa ng another alteration like sa relay, additional work na ito at hindi ka pa siguradong maganda ito at baka hindi mo na maibalik sa original ito. pag gumananaman at pagkatapos ng ilang taon nasira problemana naman, baka maslalong malaki ang gastos mo. tru mo na lang ilagay sa ibang part ung nabili mong LED, try mo sa park light.

[sag0]

yup! hindi na po ako magpapa alter. ilagay ko na lang sa park/brake light yung LED. thanks!

afaik hindi talaga pupwede ang led lights sa signals since ang operating voltage nya is lower sa bulbs. iba yun effects nyan kapag direct swap. alam ko may iniinstal na resistor yata. pero minsan gumagana. sa fender lights ko direct swap pero check mo yun terminals since may positive at negative ang led

[sag0]

mr badsekktor napagana mo yung LED mo pang signal light?

hmm parang ayoko nang manipulahin yung bulb eh... baka masira lang. sayang naman. kailangan ko ba talagang buksan yun para makita yung terminals? transparent naman yung casing pero hindi ko alam kung alin dun yung + or - papunta dun sa LED cluster mismo. what do you think po?

[alwayz_yummy]

nga pala, using LED bulbs are polarized, lalo na yung peanut and capsule bulbs--> pag di umilaw, iikot mo muna before sabihin mong busted...

baka po pwede ka mag install ng dummy bulbs.. somewhere sa kotse mo na hindi nakikita.. like the engine bay.. then.. install the new... led bulbs sa signal. para hindi maging mabilis ang pagsignal...

[sag0]

hmm... dummy bulbs? pano po yun? pasensya na po hindi ko alam yun.

Mga bossing pasali naman. Before ko mabasa itong thread nagpakabit ako ng BLUE signal lights sa front. Hindi sya maliwanag so nagusggest yung suki kong shop sa banawe ng led lamp. Blue din yung nilagay nila at super liwanag. Satisfied na sana ako. Nung bumibyahe na ko ganun din nangyari like yung ke sagO pag turn ko ng signal mabilis din yung on and off nya pero nung try ko hazard normal yung blink nya. Since last year pa nangyari yung ke sagO baka me bago na po technology para maging normal blink nya. Just in case lang. Thanks.

wala pa.. pansinin mo lahat ng bagong sasakyan, only the sidemarkers, park and brake lights are LEDs.

di pwede as main signal lights nga yun LED. wag mo din gaggamitin as reverse light kasi di yan mag-iiluminate ng road. pangit din LED as interior lighting kasi di nag-iiluminate ng maganda.

LEDs are good markers.. thats it. bright to look at, lower voltage, cooler operating temperatures...

alam ko lexus/infiniti has a big LED as headlights for their top end car.

Pasensya na po sa kulit I just chanced upon this from:

LOAD RESISTOR KITS
One LOAD Resistor is required for each turn signal bulb

6 Ohm, 50 Watt resistors can be connected across the turn signal bulbs to simulate the load of a regular filament bulb (2 Amp load). This will solve LED related turn signal problems such as hyper flashing or burnt out bulb indications. Resistor measures 1.96L x .64W x .60H inches, leads are 12 inches long.
Kit Includes gel filled moisture resistant splice taps.

CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS: Using included splice taps, connect one wire to ground and the other wire to the turn/brake hot wire. Splice taps allow for installation without cutting your turn signal wires.
We also offer 25 Ohm, 25 Watt Load Resistor kits which can be used with LED side marker lights (194/168 type) to prevent bulb-out indicators from turning on.
