Anyone using LED taillighting?


Recommended Posts

I'm considering buying the Maxxima M86416R round flush mount hybrid lights. I have started making my own taillight housings that these would mount to and I know I need a connector pigtail from the manufacturer and some sort of resistor for the new lights. Just curious if anyone else is using this type of set up and could show me the right resistor needed. Thanks!!

I have the oval Maxxima hybrid lights, i just went to the parts store and bought an electronic flasher relay to run them.

 

The electronic relays don't need a bunch of resistance like the thermal mechanical ones do.

I have the same lights that I plan on putting on the MJ and possibly XJ. They look nice.

Awesome! Does the new relay affect the front blinkers at all?

on our 91 XJ the front turn signal and park light had a fit with rear turn led and park lamp/brake light led. Regular bulbs up front, led in the rear, turn signal with parking lights off were fine, parking lights on turn signals wouldn't function and the turn signal indicators were faintly glowing when the parking lights got power.

New flasher relay made the difference, now it all works like it should. Although she said one day one of the turn signals were not responding but it only happened once. The 91 has bad grounds with the front park lights, occasionally the turn signal indicator would ground out to the instrument cluster some times lighting up the right indicator, so the front harness is a bit of a mess and is some of our problems.
