What LED rear lights are we using now?

[MakinDoForNow]

Do you really mean ETA , or am I missing something ....

My "ETA:" IS FOR "Edit To Add" followed by comment I added to my original posting.

I had to use Forscan to remove the hyperflash after thar.

Naranjita. I never used forscan. if I had to do it , how to do it?

About the Walmart bulbs?

What Walmart bulbs?
I am talking about ALLA bulbs

There is a lot of info on this site and other places. I don't know what I'm doing. But I keep reading and watching until I have enough confidence with each thing. I should be the last one giving step by step guidance. But I'm halfway intelligent and follow along everyone else and have not had any issues with Forscan, yet. I have not attempted to use it on my 2025, yet.

Thank you so much.

I have the Diode Dynamics rear tail/turn signal bulbs. Added the resistors from them, mounted inside the taillight area. The have worked perfect.
I did use heat shrink and butt-splices though, I do not use those scotch-lock style wire connectors.

Yep, the brake lamp bulbs are great, very bright and so far long lasting. They are using CREE LEDs

Do you remember specifically which ones?

Do I remember right you need two pair of both or is only one of the pairs used for signal

I used the model DD0051, HP11 bulbs.
It takes 4 bulbs and 4 resistors.
I've had them in close to a year, so far so good.

I just replaced all three light bulbs on each side on my 2025 hybrid XLT with LED and so far everything is working perfectly, no hyper flashing and extremely bright

I’ve been running these for over 2 years without issue.

(used FORScan to disable hyper flash)

... I also installed in-line resistors for the front and rear bulbs...

What resistors did you use?

 

[MakinDoForNow]

What resistors did you use?

The resistor would need to have the same resistance of the bulb replaced less the resistance of the replacing LED plus having the feature of the resistance being stable and not drifting as the resistor heated up during use.

Oof...math...

I have a granddaughter who sleeps with a stuffed TRex. She claims it protects her from bad math dreams.

Looks like Amazon is not available . My second choice was ALLA as it has 4 CREE chips
