Does Triple LED Command Electronics Tail Light Require Load Resistors on RV  

Question:

I have a 2012 Thor Freedom Elite Model 23S on a 3500 Mercedes Sprinter Chassis. OEM exterior lights are all incandescent. The Triple LED tail light you have is the exact dimensions of my existing one and even the screw holes will line up. Question is — can I use this LED light with my existing light system without having to install resistors or some other devise to make the LEDs compatible with the rest of the existing lights?front signal, marker lights, etc.

Helpful Expert Reply:

Since your RV currently has incandescent lights and you're going to be replacing them with Triple LED # CE44VR you will need to add resistors like the Putco LED Light Bulb Load-Resistors - Aluminum - Qty 2 Item # P230004A-2 to the turn signal circuits. This will keep your blinker from hyper-flashing and allow them to function normally.
