Check your grounds for the resistors. I bet one came loose or fell off.

If everything is connected nice and tight then try swapping the resistors and see if the problem follows the resistor. If so then you have a bad resistor.

Its both sides. So probably ground then? What would be the recommended way to ground the resistors? Maybe I did mine wrong.

to metal on the body. scrape the paint to get to metal or use star lock washers to bite into the metal.

Like the screw in my picture in the upper left.
