Hello all,
I have a 2005 Tacoma and recently installed the new 2009 Tacoma led taillights (from my dealer) I was told they would work just fine. After install, my ABS light keeps coming on after a couple minutes. After stopping the vehicle, turning off the truck, waiting a minute, starting it back up the ABS light is gone, but eventually comes back on. I took it to a guy I deal with at the dealer and he put the code reader on it and code C1249 "open in stop light switch circuit" is present. The led lights come on and stay on, turn signals work, along with the back up lights ( everything is working as it should)
Here's what I am thinking: since it is an 05' and I just put in the 09' led
tail lights, the computer is not getting the resistance of the brake light bulbs and it is thinking that both tail light are burnt out.
Can I put a resistor or something inline with the brake light wires to trick the computer into thinking that there is bulbs installed? Do I need to change the brake controller? Any other suggestions?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Jim
