Halogen to led headlights

Motomech09 · Apr 15, 2017

I'm new to the site and I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right area but hope someone can help. I have a 2015 ram 1500 5.7 hemi with non projector headlights. I have since switched them out for h11 LED headlights but they flicker and eventually just turn off. Now they come back on once I Shut the truck off and turn it back on. I tried an anti flicker setup for vigo but the resister diod gets extremely hot. Can anyone help me out with what to do or maybe a set of headlights that'll work or an anti flicker device that'll work? Any info is greatly appreciated.

I've got a 2014 Bighorn and have OPT7 Fluxbeam bulbs in my quad headlights. Been running them for more than 2 years and no issues. Great bulb imo.

I can't help much but I just installed the opt 7 fluxbeam x and no issues. I do know from others that the 2015 and up seen to have more issues than previous models.

I've heard of this happening with HID bulbs, but not LED'S. What brand did you buy? There are several of us that have had good luck with OPT7 LED bulbs. I've had them (Fluxbeam-X) in my truck for about 2 months and I love them. Some have had fm radio interference, but not all. I lost 3 weak stations, but that was it.

I bought lasfit led and they worked great... When they worked. I will be checking out the fluxbeam bulbs out since everyone seems to have good luck with them. Although I will say to,do anything with this truck is a pain.I have been told it is totally wired different that previous truck. I appreciate all the advice thank you

I just installed the fluxbeam x h13's in my duals this past weekend and drove 2 1/2 this morning and they performed flawless. No radio interference at all. And I have a 2010.
