Yea we did Charles. I tried using the resistors but the result still was not consistent. I'll play with them again when I don't have so many other things going on around the house.

Well, at least I now know it isn't a defective light. My guess is that the vehicle detects a problem the first time then adapts. I had an auto electrician try resistors but that didn't work. Not sure whether a relay with a separate power supply might work.

Depo light problem

I tried wiring them in parallel, in series, with resistors, without resistors and still can't solve the problem. I am on the verge of just reverting back to my OEM lights but i love the updated look of the LEDs. Someone please figure this out for us!
Thanks guys

Well, I am glad I am not the only one! I have just accepted the fact that I will get half on the first press and then all on the second.
