    Was hoping some one could help out here please... I have a set of auxbeam leds in my '17 tundra, awesome love them. I just recently picked up a well maintained '05 Sequoia with 120k miles and wanted to do the Led conversion in it also. I did the interior leds last week. So I did the research and ordered another set of Auxbeams for the headlights and a set of sealights for the fogs. I also ordered H4 load resistors as everyone recommends. Everything plugged and played like expected. I reconnected my battery and switched the headlights on, hit the fogs, hit the highs and High beam indicator works correctly as well. Sweet. So I thought all was good, I taped and secured my connections and slammed the hood. But I never started the engine.

    Today I get in it to back out of the garage and turn the headlights on to adjust them if need be. All lights work correctly but now my VSC/trac/abs/brake lights come at the dash. So I thought ok that's weird, I reset the VSC/Trac/abs/brake and try again. I go one click to parking lights and the VSC/trac/abs/brake likes DO NOT come on. Then I go next click to turn headlights on and I get the warning lights immediately. I reset and tried 3 times same result. So it's obviously something when clicking over to headlights. My question is, I only installed the one resistor at the passenger side like everyone says to do. Should I install another one on the driver side to see if that corrects it? Wondering if there is a voltage issue causing the warning lights to come on.

    At this point, I may ditch the LEDs and go with some good halogens but wanted to see if anyone else has ran into this or has any suggestions.

    Thanks

    Not being an electrical engineer. Is it safe to put the other resistor on the driver side? Just don't want to fry anything. I really like the look of the leds, but if I'm going to have issues I may go back to halogens.
