The invention relates to the field of LED light electrical circuits.
In replacing stock headlights on certain trucks with new Light Emitting Diode (LED) lights, the onboard diagnostic system of the trucks do not read sufficient load resistance from the new lights and so the diagnostic system indicates that there is an issue with the lighting system and consequently limits the functionality of the lighting system. The present application seeks to provide a solution to this problem by creating a headlight adapter that integrates components for imitating the load resistance and switching functions of Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) truck headlights (the “Headlight Adapter ”).
Stock headlight replacement poses an issue in the trucking industry for certain trucks with new LED lights. The onboard diagnostic system of these trucks do not read sufficient load resistance from the new LED lights and so the diagnostic system indicates that there is an issue with the lighting system which consequently limits the functionality of the lighting system.
The present invention seeks to provide a solution to this problem by creating a headlight adapter that integrates components for imitating the load resistance and switching functions of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) truck headlights.
The invention consists of an LED headlight adapter that integrates a series of transistors and resistors into the circuit to imitate the load resistance on incandescent lights and adjust for the delay that was experienced when transitioning from the low-beam to high-beam setting.
