LED Reverse Light Issue
I bought a set of LED lights for my reverse lights and they won't stay on. They basically have a slow flash (on for 2 seconds, off for 2 seconds). Anyone else run into this or know what's causing it?

LEDs don't play nice with our CANBUS system. Not enough resistance and the tiny circuit on them to trick our cars into thinking an incandescent is in there are usually junk, IMO.

Hi Jdshick,
Did you find a solution? or went original?
I have a little water condensation problem (side marker) and would like LED if possible as regular keep bursting a few times a season. LED, I'm guessing, will work better under high moisture condition with lower working temprature.
Thanks.
