LED Headlight install problem

    Quote from keylay101

    I just installed the 6 LED headlights i got from Tricled and the radio FM is all static now and they are plugged into the ballast positive and negative. The stock headlight the positive is plugged in to the wire and the negative wire is hooked up to the housing on the sling shot. So do I need to hook the negative up to the housing or run a wire from there to the ballast negative wire? I hate having the radio 100% static.

    Most of us had horrible radio reception before any mods

    Most LED drivers are poorly shielded and operate at the same frequency as the center band FM stations .. you need to add RFI filters to the harnesses ..
