I've never taken it apart, but if it doesn't, it won't work as well as they claim.
No, the 4709 is a diode that prevents power from being fed to multiple lights at the same time. You'll need a run-down of what you'll need to do. turn- To make your lights multi-functional, use a brake controller. Regards, Greg
It's possible that you installed it incorrectly, or that you require a more powerful resistor.
I've successfully used this diode at the following rating: 9- 15 volts DC, 3 amps

I had a different application in mind for this product: I wanted to add an LED to a car that could be powered by one of two 12V feeds, each of which was controlled by a standard automotive relay. Both feeds were connected to the side of the LED via wire nut, so they wouldn't be live at the same time. Doesn't it appear to be simple? br>br>The issue I was attempting to resolve was: Because the two 12V wires were connected, and because of other circuit design elements, when one wire was live (and the other was not), the live wire's 12V was sent down the not-live wire. live wire, all the way up to the automotive relay in charge of the not-for-profit organization. live wire, and it has an impact on other things "upstream. " " The LED worked, but the "upstream effects" were a stumbling block and a potential source of future trouble. When current flows unintentionally somewhere, it's never a good thing - This is a fantastic way to cook some food. br>br>I was able to solve the problem with the help of this product. br>br>Attached each 12V wire to a red lead on the product. Those two leads connect to two diodes hidden beneath the black midsection in the product photos. The blue wire from the product should be attached to the LED's side. LEDs continue to function properly. br>br>Basically, I had a general application of the problem this product advertises to - 12V running down one red wire does not travel back up the other red wire due to the diode pair. br>br> ensuring that 12V from one side (turn signal A on a motorcycle) does not flow through a central point (on a motorcycle, the indicator lamp in the dash) and out the other (turn signal B on a motorcycle). br>br>I tried a few different ways to fix this, looked at other options, and even tried to figure out what diode I needed before finding this product. There was no need for me to get too fancy with this because it had to be installed right next to the LED. The product works, and I'm off to install two of these new LEDs as side markers on a car that has never had any before, both with the diode setup.
This diode kit is simple to put together and performs admirably. If you're going with all four LED turn signals, this is a must-have. I put it in the speedo housing of my Vulcan900. There's a step-by-step guide to doing this on the internet. Because the turn signals were all flashing at the same time prior to installation, this product saved me from having to do custom wiring.
The flashing four-way almost-hazards, such as turn signals, have been fixed. br>br>switched all four turn signals to LED and installed an LED flasher, but no matter which way I turned all four came on, indicating that the indicator light was the problem. In less than 15 minutes, I was able to install the product using the instructions and a YouTube tutorial. I was concerned because the video had two diodes and this was described as having only one, but it still works great on my 2009 CRF230M, and it now looks like the 2009 it is and not a 1999 lol Great Product 10/10, would recommend, AND FREE Two-Year Warranty Shipping is available the same day.
This kit was mid-range in price, but the quality was just as good as some of the name brand kits, so I bought it to fix the 4 light flashing issue after installing LEDs on my bike. So far, it's been simple to set up and appears to work as expected.
It's straightforward and simple. People do their homework to figure out how to do this, and once they figure it out, it's as simple as pie. Although the instructions were straightforward, some YouTube videos may be of assistance. This is fantastic for upgrading a classic bike; I used it on a 1975 Honda 750.
My Honda Shadow 600 is a 2003 model. I was able to turn on the led signals. Wow. Many headaches were avoided as a result of this. I anticipated that installation would be difficult. I followed the directions and found it to be very simple. br>br>Just make sure you use heat shrink tubing to keep it away from moisture and other contaminants.
I liked how easy and simple it was to install the Diode Kit wire assembly. After conducting extensive research, I determined that this brand and company were the best to purchase it from. It wasn't cheap, but it was well packaged, shipped quickly, and arrived in perfect condition. I put it on a 2005 Kawasaki Vulcan 1600 Nomad that I had LED lights installed on, and it works perfectly.
The current that overflowed from the first signal was enough to light up the second when I installed low-power LED signals. This could no longer happen because of the installation of this diode, which created a "one way street. " The instructions were simple to follow, and the product was relatively simple to put together. Just make sure to find good ground, as others have suggested. Current will not flow if this is not done. Best of luck!.
