Hi everyone.
Okay, 2 days ago i installed two brand new LED light bulbs for both of my tail lights.
i turned on my car and the ABS light along with the Traction control light came on on my dashboard... the car did not feel any different... so I'm not that worried about these lights right now... what i am worried about is this.

My break lights work perfectly fine during the day; they illuminate when i press on the brakes...
However, they do not illuminate at night when i have my lights on... since the lights are already on, the tail lights are already on as well...but they do not get brighter when i press on the brakes... (hope that made sense)..

i was wondering how to get this fixed? should i just go back to stock light bulbs.? and would going back to stock light bulbs also fix the dashboard lights issue?
the only reason why i replaced them is because one of the bulbs had blown out..

One last thing... the relay/fuse labeled "ignition" is broken (not blown out). but i feel as though i should replace it immediately.. i was thinking that replacing the tail light bulbs with LED's caused all these problems...

Any feedback is welcome. thanks

 

Did you disconnect your battery?

 

Go back to stock bulbs and read up on using LED lights.

 

The stock bulbs are basically two lights inside of one, one is for the brake/park light, and the other is for the brake only.

 

Thanks guys. I'll go back to stock bulbs and I'll follow up on the thread. And no I didn't disconnect the battery.... At what point should I have done that ?

 

You need resistors to avoid this.

 

I was thinking if you had disconnected it then your traction control might just need to be recalibrated

 

This. Search is your friend.

 

Okay, I went to autozone and bought a package of regular tail light bulbs (7443) and a package for the third break light (7440). ABS and traction control lights went away, and all my break lights work..
