TYC projector headlight issue

zjakefrmstatefarm · Mar 21, 2016

I put in a set of TYC projectors into my 2015. when the truck is on and i use the turn signal the lamp cuts out after a few flashes then i get an error in the truck saying it is out. but when i turn the lights on i have no issues with the turn signal what so ever. It is just the passenger side i am having issues with. Everything is grounded correctly. Just seems weird that the driver side works fine but the passenger side is causing problems. Any one with an insight be able to help?

Could it be that to many resistors are on the circuit cutting down the power? their are 2 for one housing and 2 for the other.

Could possibly be to many resistors. I'm sure someone else will chime in with a for sure answer

From my understanding the TYC lights on the 13-14 work different than the 15. Something about the limited error. You may ask Jeremy at retroshop if he knows?

I know it's going to be a pain but try swapping the passenger side whole adapter kit with the drivers side. This will tell you whether the passenger side light has an issue, if the adapter has a issue or maybe something just wasn't hooked up right.

The adapter harness' are notoriously picky. When installed correctly they work wonders, but You really need to check and see if ALL of the pins are seated correctly. I had this problem to, but once corrected, it works flawlessly.

I'm not much help but just go over everything again, these trucks are really finicky when messing with the electrical system. I had issues with my TYC projectors flickering and cutting off but took it back to the shop that installed them and they were able to fix it. Works perfectly now.

I actually did swap everything over to the passenger side the side having issues even the headlight housing as well. still the same issue.
I will have to check to see if all the pins are seated correctly from what i saw everything looked correct.

Yes, sometimes the pins push back on the harness, I finally just soldered all mine, never an issue again.
