weird!!!

I had weird experience.

I tried to mod some lights about 9 month ago!!

I have changed break lights, turn signal and fog light to LED bulbs.

After I changed reverse light, somewhere or some parts were burned

(no bulbs), and reverse light doesn't work, so I thought

reverse harness would been burned, and I didn't fix it until yesterday (for nine

month).

Last night I installed load balancing resistor for the led turn signal, after that

the reverse lights were turned on again (after 9 month!!!!), and I placed LED

bulb again.

It works so fine!! This is such a weird thing.. I can't understand..

oh boy, where to start:


Whenever you throw a LED in a circuit that had regular bulbs, you change teh resistance of the circuit. That's the entire point behind the load resistors, to replicate the resistance of the regular bulb.
