OK this worked out perfect. Those that replaced the tail/brake bulbs w/ LEDs we found out that the min load that the LEDs bulbs use, the cruse wasn't working and some guys with AT had some clicking issues. Using a 3ohm load eq wired on the brake bulb wire fixes all that.

Take the load eq and wire it from the ground to the green and yellow wire. I tested it out this weekend and the cruise work perfect now.

Make sure the eq isn't touching any wires as it gets hot, and just tuck it into the housing somewhere.

Mike what does this do exactly?

LEd bulbs use minimum load compared to a normal bulb. Thats why when you put an LED bulb in the signal location it blinks really fast. The same goes with the tail/brake bulb location. The tail/brake circuit are tied into the cruise and AT. (Some guys with AT experience constant clicking coming from the AT. This might have something to do with the fact that you need tp press the brake to shirt out of park.)


Putting load Equalizers on tricks the system into thinking the loads are normal and everything works OK.
