    Gona need a little more info to have a chance at solving this such as:

    Year/engine/trim of the truck

    Have any recent mods been done/"events" that led up to this problem?

    Exactly what warning lights are coming on?

    Have you had the truck scanned for codes, if so what codes are in what modules?

    SO this only happens with high beams not low beams or parking lights?
    And they go out with a key cycle?

    Have you done any recent wiring/electrical/lighting mods?

    Yes, but it was a problem before I hooked up my light bar. I mean, I put LED bulbs in it when I first got it, but I just don’t remember when the problem first started.

    We really need to see what codes we have in the ABS module otherwise we are just guessing.

    Maybe you had mice cause havoc to the wiring. Do you happen to have a nest in the air duct or cabin air filter?

    You can add a link to YT for a video, but not a "video file".

    I think I'd want to have a look at connector IA5 first and see if there's any moisture/corrosion in it because both the dimmer relay control and the VSC off switch signal go though it, it's the only conceivable place I can find where the highbeams could possibly affect the VSC off.
