    So all a sudden when i get in my truck the phone will connect and a phone call will automatically come up except it is my phone number and it cuts out and back to the radio and then about 10 secs later a call comes up again for a couple secs and it's my own phone number again. It does this over and over until i manually disconnect and connect back which stops the problem

    My question is could this be due to interference from wiring up my raptor light into the fuse box with an add a fuse. Maybe interference from crossing wires of sorts. This problem did not show up until i installed the lights yesterday night

    With electronics anything can happen. Why not pull that fuse and see if problem remains? Easy way to check.

    I'd guess it's your phone

    If your phone is trying to talk to you, such as Maps directions, it will show as an incoming call. You sure nothing like that is happenning?

    Try restarting your phone. I’ve heard people even had to update their phones

    I am going to try restarting the phone to see if that makes a difference. If not i will unplug the lights to see if it stops
