Diode Dynamics Inline 194 Resistor

 

Diode Dynamics Inline 194 Resistor gives customers replacing small incandescent bulbs with lower-draw LED bulbs a resistor pair for helping resolve bulb-out warnings in 194, 168, or 921 size bulb applications. It is made for customers who want LED license plate, cargo, or small-bulb upgrades without warning messages from the vehicle without turning a lighting upgrade into guesswork.

Each inline resistor draws 5 watts of power to better approximate the draw of a standard 194 bulb. Instead of leaving customers to work around factory bulb monitoring systems that detect the lower draw of LED replacement bulbs as a fault, it provides a pair of inline resistors with universal connectors for small-bulb circuits for a cleaner result when customers install LED bulbs in license plate, cargo, or similar 194, 168, or 921 applications and need extra load on the circuit.

The resistor pair uses 22 gauge wiring and universal connector ends for flexible fitment across many applications. Operating temperature is listed from -40C to 85C, and each resistor draws 5 watts. Customers can match the accessory to the light, housing, circuit, connector, or vehicle application before installation begins.

This product is offered as a pair for two small-bulb locations or for a circuit that requires two inline resistor connections. Universal fitment applies to compatible 194, 168, and 921 bulb-size circuits when the connectors and wiring approach match the vehicle. The right version helps the finished upgrade stay cleaner, easier to service, and better matched to the job. Careful preparation, secure connections, and clean placement help the accessory perform as intended after the installation is complete.

Whether customers are upgrading for LED license plate bulbs, cargo light upgrades, or warning-message reduction, the Diode Dynamics Inline 194 Resistor delivers a focused small-bulb load solution for compatible LED conversions. Now Available at LEER!
