LED repair and upgrade of the central high-mounted stop lamp (CHMSL)

Specialists of Car Light Design service, having analysed the statistics of treatment with problems of burnout of auto lamps in the central stop signal (CHMSL) in budget cars, where auto lamps of brands W3W, W5W, W16W, W21W, R10W are installed, have determined the regularity of frequent burnout of these auto lamps in car bodies - station wagon, hatchback.

This is primarily due to the technical features of the car. The central stop signal (CHMSL), in these bodies is located on the boot lid, as a result, when closing the boot lid, the bulb experiences every time shaking, which negatively affects the spiral of the bulb, reducing its life.

The way out of the situation, with burning out of these auto lamps, lay in the use of diode lamps, which correspond in type and size with the installed auto lamps by the car manufacturer.

Having studied opinions of clients about how exactly they see visualisation of light, central stop signal (CHMSL) of their car, with the use of diode technologies, specialists of Car Light Design understood that there are car owners who do not particularly like multipoint formation of light of the central stop with diode auto lamps or diode tape. To increase the offer of services, to upgrade to Led light of the central stop light of the car, and also taking into account the fact that according to statistics, the car with a working central stop light reduces the accident rate by 5%, and European car manufacturers, to increase the safety of road users, have taken for themselves and declared at the legislative level, since 1998 it was adopted mandatory location of an additional central stop light on the car, this stop light must be above the line of the left and right side of the car. Car Light Design specialists have developed a modernisation of the stop light (CHMSL) using Led technology, a non-visual spot light with enhanced light output. We show the centre stop light (CHMSL) of Peugeot 605 car working on 5 W5W lamps, in our version not all of them work.

You can judge for yourself the condition of W5W bulbs, which produced light in the central stop signal. One of the five lamps burned out completely, the other two are tired, but still worked at the time of disassembly of the stop signal.

And the central brake light (CHMSL) of the same car, only with modernisation and the use of Led technology. Judge for yourself by the brightness of the light and the clarity of its visualisation. Interested car owners, such modernisation, are welcome to visit us. Where we will demonstrate the brightness of light from such modernisation compared to diode tapes or inexpensive diode car lamps.
