Description
DECODER FOR H4 BULB Smart Decoder for H4 LED Bulbs The smart decoder is used when the vehicle’s computer performs a verification of the original bulbs to inform the driver of the fault using a display in the dashboard of the vehicle. The smart decoder also allows a “pulsed” current (as shown in the diagram to the left), frequently encountered in American vehicles such as Ram and JEEP, much like the DRL decoder, to provide a steady current coming from the car computer to the LED bulb. ALLOWS CONTROL OF THE MANUFACTURER’S ANOMALY DETECTORS.^ALLOWS TO STABILIZE POWER FROM CAR’S COMPUTER TO THE LED BULB.^STABILIZES THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE TO +/- 2%. WITH IDENTICAL CONNECTORS TO THOSE USED BY MANUFACTURERS WHICH ALLOWS QUICK AND EASY INSTALLATION.^OPERATING CAPACITY OF 8-24V DC. IN A ROBUST WATER-RESISTANT BOX SUPERIOR TO IP68 STANDARDS.^IN SOME AMERICAN VEHICLES (CHEROKEE, 300, CHARGER) AND SOME MERCEDES THAT HAVE A GREATER SENSITIVITY TO THE VARIANCES OF THE BULB CHARGE THAN THE MAJORITY OF MANUFACTURERS. IF THE ORIGINAL BULB HAS 55W AND YOUR ODX LED BULB HAS 30W, A 25W LOSS IS PERCEIVED BY THE COMPUTER, WHICH WILL TURN ON A BURNT BULB SIGNAL ON THE DASHBOARD. IN SOME CASES, SUCH AS THE AMERICAN MODELS, THE LIGHT CIRCUIT MAY SHUT DOWN AFTER A FEW DAYS DURING AN AUTOMATIC TEST. DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE INTELLIGENT ODX DECODER ADDS 5W TO THE CIRCUIT FOR A TOTAL OF 35W AND WORKS IN MOST CASES, THE VEHICLES LISTED ABOVE ARE MORE SENSITIVE BECAUSE THERE IS STILL TOO MUCH OF A DIFFERENCE. IN THIS VERY SPECIFIC CASE, YOU WILL HAVE TO USE THE RELAYS WITH CAPACITOR WITH THE ADD-A-CIRCUIT OPTION AND OUR 55W RESISTOR SETS FROM ODX. CONTACT YOUR REPRESENTATIVE FOR FURTHER QUESTIONS. MATERIAL: ALUMINUM OPERATING VOLTAGE : DC 9-32V
