I bought my heads/tails thru TRS using amazon pay. I requested my order refund thru amazon and they took care of it right away, but mine were never delivered though.

I have a 2015 dodge ram with factory LED tail lights. I purchased the Morimoto XB headlights and have not has one single issue with them yet. 2 weeks ago i purchased the XB LED tail lights which i love, but noticed that my back right /passenger tail light was out when my parking light was illuminated at night. I would get an error on my dash saying "parking Light out" when ever i get that error i can pull over and look and notice my back right tail light is not working. Everything else works, break light/turn signal, and reverse, BUT no parking light. The fix as always is to turn the vehicle off and turn it back on, and it comes right back on, but sometimes it wont go out and sometimes it does shortly after. I have tried numerous methods to try and stop it, this includes not using my turn signal, not going into reverse, switching my lights from automatic to always on...etc..etc....Cant seem to find a pattern yet.

Unless something has changed and the Morimoto website hasn't been updated, it says on their website that these are NOT compatible with trucks that have factory LED tails. Could be your problem right there.

How are your tail lights? I'm running into the same issue as op. Thinking about going with alpha obd and disabling parking light out feature. Retrofit source wants 125$ to restock their ****.

Mine have been trouble free since going in. I made no changes with Alfa, all stock.
And being a 15 I was worried.
Sorry your having issues.

So i had the issue of the passenger side reverse light blinking 4 times and then saying backup bulb out on my 16 big horn. Went in with alfaobd and set JUST the reverse lights to led and all seems well. Warning message went out and reverse light is working fine. Going to monitor it.

So my passenger reverse light has been blinking and then goin out since I've owned them. I basically gave up on them cause they output such ****** light to begin with. I went with an aftermarket bumper with cutouts for rigid lights. But now passenger side has gone completely out and I doubt it's the connector cause the brake light still works but running light no longer comes on
