LED headlight bulb issue

[Mikegraves777]

So I have bought led headlight and fog light bulbs and am having an issue with the headlights lighting up and then shutting right off when truck is running. I can turn them on and. Truck off and they will stay lit but soon as I start truck they shut off. This is only happening with headlights not fog lights. Now I replaced blinkers and tail lights and had to install a load resister in them I am wondering if I jus need to do that on the headlights as well. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

What kit did you buy??? I installed LED headlights and have had no problems other than the occasional flicker when the can-bus system does its little annoying test. Have had them for over 3 months now.

I have the Lifetime LED headlights and fogs, and never once had any flicker or turning off problems. What kit are you using?

 

[Mikegraves777]

Just some bulbs no drivers or anything with them. I wanted to see what they look like and if bright enough I will spend more money on better ones.

Can anyone hook me up with a link?

Mike...look up Lifetime LED headlight replacements....The ones you have now are no where near bright enough to use as headlights.

These are the ones I am using: Amazon.com : Race Sport H13 LED Headlight Conversion : Vehicle Electronics : Automotive

Quite bright in the stock housings. I have aftermarket headlight housings and they throw a weird pattern with them. Very bright and I have had no problems other than the occasional Can-Bus flicker.

Those are like the Lifetime ones. The only difference is that the Lifetimes use a larger cooling fan.

anyone using these in 2014s with no additional wiring/harnesses other than what comes with the kit?
