Bushwacker LED lights causing "turn signal out" warning

[CrummyArchitect]

I upgraded to the Bushwacker Hyperform fender flares w/ LED DRLs back in March. Ran with them just fine for a few months, then started getting drivers side turn signal out warning, it came and went, then a few months the passenger side out warning started happening. And now the warning is on at all time, yet the lights still work. I had the factory LED lighting option, and I understood these to be direct plug-and-play with no issues, but aware this is an issue with replacing non-LED bulbs with LED lighting on many vehicles.
Any body else experienced that with these (or another manufacturers LEDs) and have a good solution?
Any info will be appreciated!

As a last resort, you can use Jscan to tell the Jeep to ignore the issue and the MIL (malfunction indicator lamp) will go away

I put a set of the AAL versions on my wife's JLUR. The first versions had lots of bulb out issues, the newest versions (made by Diode Dynamics) have been flawless. I don't know if you can purchase the harness with the resistor bank separately, but it's worth a look.

Sorry just saw this msg from back in Oct!
But to answer your question "NO" I have found no answer and still have the issue. I've been running with them this whole time. I've also experienced other issues intermittently, like the driver side DRL occasionally just wouldn't work (if headlights were set to AUTO, but would come on if set to other settings) but now its currently on most of the time... mostly. I eventually just abandoned trying to fix it thinking I was going to swap for different fenders, but haven't committed to doing that yet.

No worries!! I found my issue. My inner fenders were “pinching” on the wire. Once i redid them and there is no pressure on the wire, it has been working

Oh good deal!
Yeah I have completely disconnected mine and checked the wiring a couple times to make sure I didn't have a similar issue. Even cleaning up the connectors, and wrapping in tape, and running the wires in a loom, making every effort to protect them. Like I said I kinda just gave up! lol
