I've read about the need to put a load on the circuit when installing the LED headlights so the fogs will still work with the low beams but I can't find any information on how to do that.
Where might I find this oh wise ones? |

QUOTE(jdamiano @ Nov 29 2022, 12:05 PM)  Hey, thanks for the quick reply guys . . I've been watching for a response since I guess we don't get the email notices any more, (so sad). I didn't realize I had to refresh the page. So, thanks, I'll read up on this. Here's what I'm up to - When I built this monster I was driving the mountain roads in Colorado and didn't need fogs and I found that replacing the fogs with driving lights only required moving the power source from the low beam fuse to the high beam. The Cibie series 95 as I recall fit almost perfectly in the '75 RBBB (rubber babby buggy bumper) With the newer lights today, I suspect I can get the same high beam range from the newer LEDs and since we're now in the land of Rain and Fog(WA), I can put some fogs back in the RBBB. I really like the idea of being able to run them on just the running lights too - thanks again for the quick response. |
