What is high beam indicator light?
What does the High Beam indicator light mean? When you switch from low to high beams, you’ll see the High Beam indicator turn on in the dash (it’s a blue symbol that looks like a headlight). When you switch back to low from your high beams, the light will go out.
How do you fix a high beam indicator light?
The high beam switch/turn signal switch is malfunctioning – The high beam indicator gets power directly from the wire that connects the high beam switch to the daytime lights module. A temporary solution to this is to turn the high beams on and off quickly several times, which could clean the contacts in the switch.
Is there a problem with the high beam indicator?
No problem with low beams. Will post when I get a fix for the high beam indicator light. The high beam indicator gets power through the headlight. The LED lights won’t complete the circuit. You would have to add a small light bulb or resistor between the red/white and red/green left headlight wires or red/blue and red/green right headlight wires.
How to fix high beam indicator on LED headlights?
FIX 2: Used a 2.8K Ohm 0.25w resistor between the high beam (Blue/White) and and neutral (Black) right behind one headlamp. The resistor will “burn” the excess power and the high beam indicator won’t turn on as it will keep the voltage around 0.2V dissipating 0.001W on low beams.
Why is my Stovebolt high beam indicator dim?
With your lights on dim the voltage is “looking” for a ground, it has found one through the filament of your indicator bulb. The risistance of the filament in the headlight beam drops the voltage to the indicator, hence the dim apperance of this lamp.
Are there any resistors for Philips LED head lights?
Will try some resistors. But these new philips led lights are nice. have the same pattern as the Piaa xtreme white halogens that I had in before with nice cutoff. Either they put out more light or its a much whiter light (6000K) and can see better especially off to the side. Got flashed a couple of times but them I realized I had them on high beam.
