10 Ohm Universal Load Resistor
In stock
This load resistor will solve common problems for installers adding aftermarket equipment while providing the best possible audio signal. Factory audio systems in modern vehicles are designed to mute the output of the radio and/or amplifier should a speaker fail or get disconnected. Axxess load resistors prevent this so that installers can add aftermarket equipment. These products use specific values to allow for the best possible audio signal and safely stabilize the output of a factory audio system. They are installed on the output side of your factory radio or amplifier, allowing you to add a line output converter (LOC) or feed speaker-level inputs directly to your aftermarket amplifier.
Overview
A 10 Ohm universal load resistor is an electronic component used primarily to add electrical resistance to a circuit, simulating the power draw of an original factory component. They are most commonly utilized in automotive applications to prevent LED turn signal hyper-flashing or to stop factory car audio systems from muting when aftermarket amplifiers or line output converters are installed
Specifications
Resistance Value: 10 Ohms. fixed resistance, typically with a ±5% tolerance rating.10W to 15W for inline audio stabilization interfaces. Voltage Compatibility: Universally rated for 12V DC vehicle systems, but most individual components can tolerate a supply voltage range of 12V to 32V.
Key features
It generates the exact electrical load required to satisfy factory diagnostic checks, preventing smart amplifiers from muting and dashboard computers from throwing “bulb out” errors.: It drops blinker pulse frequencies back to regular speeds when replacing factory incandescent bulbs with low-draw aftermarket LEDs. The internal wirewound core is encased in an extruded metal chassis with built-in cooling fins to safely absorb and radiate extreme thermal energy.
