Hey fellow Jeeple, I have started the upgrade from stock lights to LED tail and headlights. I got my first tail light installed, and it worked just fine except for the expected hyper flash, but now I have another problem. I noticed that when I turn my headlights on, the tail lights go out and nothing works until I turn the headlights off again. Anyone else have this problem or know the solution? Thanks again for the help.
 
I would start by checking the ground wires on your headlights and tail lights. One may have worked loose during install

LED lights are not just light bulbs, they are also diodes which can really screw up circuits that weren't designed for them. LED headlights don't usually cause problems but LED tail lights, side markers, and turn signals can. Odds are those LED tail lights are the problem, not all are designed well enough to not cause problems.
