Issues after LED interior bulb install

[MurdaRam]

Hello everyone, I'm having some weird issues after installing LED interior bulbs and cargo lights from FyreFlys. After install I started noticing intermittent issues like key fob not responding, key fob not detected and also push button start on truck is delayed. Even the instrument cluster was delayed on start up which was weird. Do you think this is directly related to the LED bulbs or could this be another issues? Mind you there are no error codes, check engine lights etc. (I did change battery on key fob, still same issue)

It is related and there are posts already about FyreFly LEDs causing it.

the LEDs are almost 100% your issue. Some LED's have circuitry that emits RF. The RF they are emitting is interfering with the RF hub in your truck. The hub is what detects your keyfob and allows you to start the truck.

Thanks for the help! I contacted seller but he denied any claim that his LEDs were causing my issues. I will get a refund asap. What brand LEDs would you guys recommend?

It’s the LEDs, main reason I haven’t done that “upgrade” yet

Hit up this guy, he did a full interior and apparently doesn't have issues.

Led Upgrades

I recently got a 19 bighorn and was fitted with all halogen lights, headlights, fogs, all interior lights cargo lights. I came from the tacoma world so found 2 good sources with great quality and light output. For the low beams I did the xenon depot h11 pro led kit I like these for a few reasons...

Do yourself a favor and check out diodedynamics.com I've been using them in my last few vehicles. No issues. They are a little more expensive. And, I'm not affiliated.

Would we need the LED resistors for our Rams?

We were talking about interior LED swap. I used no resistors. As far as the exterior I think you might depending on if the light blinks or brightens. If you search their site with your truck loaded up in the search parameters then I'm pretty sure it tells you what's required.

You can also checkout Lasfit.com, they have all the LED you will needed, only problem is they're lil' pricey.

So it's been days since I uninstalled the FyreFly LEDs and reverted back to stock halogen interior lights. I can confirm that they were the cause of my issues. My truck is back to normal. I will try Diode Dynamics LEDs next.

Update: Diode Dynamics LEDs are in and working flawlessly.

Just for the record - your regular interior bulbs are not halogen. Incandescent, but not halogen.
