LED Tail Light Swap Issues

[Wet Willys]

I swapped my non-LED tail lights for some OEM LED take-off tail lights today. When I first plugged them in and turned the lights on I had no tail lights on either side. I then remembered I need to change the setting in my Tazer so I did that and only got some flickering from the left side tail light but the signals and brakes worked. I then rebooted the tazer, unplugged and re-plugged both tail lights in, then neither side would do anything. Did a hard reboot, changed back to non-LED in the Tazer settings, then back to LED, then another hard re-boot. Now everything works except the right side tail light. Bizarre.

Anyone have this kind of problem?

Did you do the required sleep cycles after rebooting the taser?

He just did it today so I doubt he's had any sleep since....
Oh, the truck, sorry.

Yeah, people get impatient when making such changes. I know the passive entry stuff on my 2020 wasn't 100% - didn't show up in the radio, etc. - until the next day. I also got some sleep.

These are picky on LED - the voltage is even regulated on then, so each module has to communicate with the others.
I'd say - make the changes, and go sleep on it and don't try again until tomorrow. Make sure the truck is off, door closed and so on a couple of times.

I forgot to do the sleep cycles the first time I changed it, but did it after I changed it back and forth a couple of times. I probably just confused it. I'll let it sleep overnight and hope it starts working tomorrow. Now the right tail light gives about 4 rhythmic flashes and stays off....

Welp, no dice this morning. Still no right side tail light function. Maybe I should try unmarrying the Tazer?

Have you updated your Tazr recently?

Nope, honestly have been scared to since everything has been working fine up to this issue. Didn't want to fix something that wasn't broken. I'll go ahead and try that.

Just unmarried, updated, remarried and went through settings, performed two sleep cycles, and still not working. It gives two or three flashes on the right tail, and then doesn't work. Brake and turn still work on both sides.

Update to this: The tail light was actually just bad. I got another set and they work fine.
