  • Indicator lights

    Hi All,
    I installed an LED indicator lights/ DRL in one, just under the headlights, works fine ,now I've got too many indicator lights and I need to discard the one next to headlights (orig. indicator lights) . I tried taking it ( globes) off but the other indicators are signalling too fast . Is there any way to take the globe off completely without the flickering ? Like to use a dummy load but still have the bulbs in it . I want the bulbs off completely. For a 150 series VX 2011...

    Thanks,
    Ceasar

    I have a Jan-2017 150 series GX (notably, it has the OEM headlight-integrated indicator, along with roobar mounted LEDs). The owner's manual says the OEM front turn signal globes are 21 Watt amber wedge-fit. This globe will draw about 1.75 amps (assuming 12v at the globe). If each OEM globe is replaced with a 6.8 ohm resistor capable of handling the 21W, a similar current will be drawn.

    Theory over. I see that Narva do a "12V 21 Watt LED Load Resistor - Twin Blister Pack" for around $21 online (Repco and Supercheap do them for $29 EACH - shop around!). These should do the job of replacing the old globes (one each side). Disclaimer: I take no responsibility for any unexpected outcome.

        If I understand correctly you want to disconnect the indicators for appearance only. You might want to confirm the indicators in the bullbar meet ADR requirements by themselves. That is you might find that without the standard OEM indicators your Prado would fail a roadworthy test.
