    So I bought some alpha Rex tail lights for my 07 trd sport. Bought a flasher because only my emergency lights were working on the tail lights when I installed them. Bought and Installed a flasher and the tail lights started working but my headlights stopped working (also led) and I never had problems with those before. Just plug and play. So then I ended up taking the flasher out and putting back the oem harness back on. And then I realize that the tail lights all of a sudden work now but now I have hyper flash on both headlights and tail lights. Is it okay to drive around them with hyper flash? Obviously I would like to fix the problem but don’t have time to fix until the weekend. I wanted my last resort to be load resistors but seems like that’s my only choice now?

    What headlights do you have?
    everything Non-OEM will give you problems sooner than OEM would have.
    That being said, hyper flash is fine. Just annoying until you get used to it. Once you keep your eyes out for it you’ll notice the cars on the road that have it. Mine does it right now because I decided to put LED turn signal bulbs without thinking:bananadead:
    I’m just too lazy to go buy new ones.
