I guess I just got lucky, I knew nothing about them until after I bought them. Locosiete 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AOXOMOXOA Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 I discovered something today about LED lights and flickering. The Journey uses the high beams as its running light at a lower voltage. LED lights do not dim, or the ones I have don't. so the flicker with half the power. as soon as the get full power they do not flicker any more, its only during the day time running lights. this is just what I have noticed on my 2018 AWD SRT DJ so I bought one of the resistor cables, I will have it tomorrow so I will see what that does. it isn't really a big deal it just bugs me now that I know.

JeremyJ Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 I used BeamTech bulbs in my 2018. They were pretty affordable. I like them because there is no noisy little fan on the bulbs. There is an extremely mild flicker from time to time, but it's barely noticeable and it doesn't bother me enough to add a resistor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they make LED that are for DLR that are not as bright but not sure if it really is any less output. they are absolutely running with less current and are not as bright as they are when you flip the bright switch. why they use the bright lights as DRL is beyond me. I don't know why they just wouldn't have the low beams do this but whatever. we will see what happens when i add the adapter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't have any flickering then i wouldn't add. Well it did flicker a little bit, Nothing like what other people were reporting. I did add the decoders to the high beams only. I haven't been in a position to test it out yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to try it out. Now I know. Locosiete 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The canbus system is the problem. You have to add an adapter to prevent that. It runs in-line otherwise you have to buy ones that are for a canbus system Something like this Edited March 22 by Locosiete add info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some are canbus compatible. Dodge uses a canbus system that's why they Flicker. Adding an adapter like that will fix it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
