    I just installed AlphaRex LUXX Projector headlights. I followed everything to the T, including connecting it into the cabin fuse box instead of the engine fuse box. But ever since, my tail lights’ passive lights (also AlphaRex) don’t turn on. Only my turn signals and brake lights are working.

    Check the power for that tail light to start finding out its causes.

    I’m suspecting it to be a small power draw. Noticed my dashboard lights don’t dim when I turn on my low beams like they should. I’m gonna try and throw on a 50 Ohm Resistor and see if it works.
