    I'll give it a like man just because at the end of the video you said it wasn't a pro job .. you knew what u wanted An got it done so props for that.. here's a few tips for next time... 1 that load resistor gets very hot An will melt plastic, always mount them to metal and away from any wires.. 2 never use a baking sheet to bake lights.. use wood because if you leave lights on cooking sheet the heat can not move around the light, it stays at the cooking sheet An can melt the light assembly .. 3 your schematics on the paper you drew up is not the correct way to wire that said set up.. 2 resistors and a diode should be used. Than you'd be able to make 1 single led strip be used as a running light and brake light just like the factory dual filament bulb..

  • @almorris171

    That resister is made to sit on a heatsink. What is the ohm value? A 12 ohm would allow 1 amp at 12VDC which is 12 amps. Lower ohms means more current and more wattage/heat. Wattage/Power is equal to voltage x current. I don't understand the parallel arrangement. A current limiting resister should be in series with an LED to control the current thru it. Also it looked like he had the running lights and brake lights wired together. They should be two separate circuits because one is on when the car is running. The brake controls the brake light.

    I want to do this on a Mazda 3 2012 hatchback, however, any ideas to how would I wire a car that has lights on the boot as in when you lift the boot the lights are separated so to get the continuous water flow indicator look would I need a delay or just wire one strip to the other strip and then wire that to the indicator terminals, any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated thanks guys and great video!!!

  • @PhilWithSuper

    3 жыл бұрын

    Each light (the one on the boot and the one not) should have their own plugs. So essentially what you would have to do is to wire each one individually. They will both blink at the same time that way. If you want them to blink separately, I believe running a resistor and capacitor would work, as it takes time for a capacitor to charge up before it emits the current through it.

    Just advice for the future, it's much better to swap out your blinker repay for an LED blinker relay instead of adding a load resistor. Eliminates the hyperflash, but it doesn't waste electricity and it doesn't generate a bunch of heat that could melt stuff. It blows my mind why people still use load resistors tbh.

    Based on the way you did the wiring, it looks to me like your brake and parking lights will be the same bulb / LED combination at the same brightness. If I'm correct, that's really dangerous since it gives zero warning to the people behind you when you step on the brakes!
