The CARROFIX Non-Powered Taillight Converter is for vehicle owners and DIY installers who need a simple, passive solution to connect trailers to vehicles with separate turn and brake signals. It's well suited for light-duty towing where a compact, weather-resistant converter is preferred and where you may already use LED or incandescent trailer lights. If your trailer’s LEDs flash too quickly, pair this converter with a dedicated flasher or load resistor to stabilize the blink rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Do I need a separate power source for this converter?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: No. This is a non-powered converter that passively combines vehicle signals without its own power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Will it fix rapid flashing with LED trailer lights?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Possibly—some LED setups need a heavy-duty flasher or resistor to correct rapid flash rates; those are sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"CARROFIX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55163415036247,"sku":"B08344TSMB","price":33.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1050\/1524\/7191\/files\/carrofix-front-view-converter.jpg?v=1790344230","url":"https:\/\/britishgarage.co.uk\/products\/carrofix-non-powered-taillight-converter-20in-leads-60in-4-flat-extension-weatherproof","provider":"British Garage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
