So I installed a set of "plug'n'play" high and low LED lights on my Custom Trail Boss 2024 and even though I was told by the manufacturer that a lot of clients installed it without any problems, I got an kind of hyperflash or fast flicker ONLY when the truck get in auto stop and then restarts.

So I contacted the seller and he told me that even though it was strange because it was the first time he heard that, I should install an anti-flicker module, which I did. However, even with the anti-flicker module, I still get the hyperflash when the truck restarts after an auto start/stop. The rest of the time, everything work fine.

Anybody already had a similar issue and/or have any ideas?

Thanks for the help!

What brand of LED bulbs did you use?

It is a local guy in Canada where I’m from that sells this brand which is kind of unknown, but I had some good comments from some local folks so I went with them. Probably should have chosen something else I guess : https://ledenligne.com/products/kit-led-chevrolet-silverado-1500-custom-trail-boss-2019-2020?_pos=2&_sid=cf8d63283&_ss=r


Same for the anti-flicker modules : https://ledenligne.com/collections/accessoires/products/decodeur-canbus-pour-led-haute-qualite?variant=18567027785826

 

Thanks!

I had hyperflashing on my last 2021 Trail Boss Custom. The LEDs I installed were hyperflashing on the turn signals. I also had hyperflashing on the license plate lights that I installed. Never used "anti flicker modules". In my situation I had cheap, sh*tty LEDs. I replaced those LEDs with Lasfits. Excellent LEDs no flashing and no modules. I now have a 2023 Trail Boss Custom and I replaced all incandescents with Lasfit LEDs. I did replace my incandescent tail/brake light assemblies with OEM LED tail/brake assemblies and had to install a resister wiring harness inline to prevent hyperflash on the rear turn signal LEDs. Got the resister harness from Gen5DYI. You obviously did not buy cheap LEDs $220 CAD. I would suggest trying to return your LEDs and purchase Lasfits (they have them on Amazon). This is not a commercial for Lasfit. They are just LEDs that I know work well.

 

I hope this is helpful for you.

Thanks for the hint. I might try Lasfit. Can you share a link to the exact ones you purchased for the LED low beams? Thanks again pal!

I realize this is an older thread… I just put Lasfit LEDs n the tails, reverse, side markers and license plate lights. Within a a couple days the turn signals started hyperflashing intermittently. Inconsistent. May stop doing it if I turn blinker off and turn it back on, may not. Anyone else have this issue?  Lasfit refunded my money and are very easy to work with. Just wish these LEDs worked properly. 2019 Silverado LT

I initially used resisters, for some reason the top lights wouldn’t be on when the tails were on. That was just as annoying as the hyperflash. I did resisters on all 4 tail light bulbs. Maybe should have just done 2?  I’m now on my 3rd update of lasfit lights. This last set did perfect for just over a month and now continue to intermittently hyperflash. 🤪. Lasfit is supposed to continue to update and replace as they come up w new bulb.

      2019+ Brake failure, it's complicated

      By needafix · Posted

      I'm not sure if this should be a new topic, let me know if it's out of place. This my first post. Thanks 85077522 - AC Delco GM Genuine Parts Brake Master Cylinders. Anyone else had to replace this brake master cylinder yet. I didn't do any brake work, it looks like new parts and I've had the truck for about 4k miles, 119k total miles.  When it started to throw codes I did the calibrations with a bidirectional scanner and got the codes to clear but they came back so I did the routine; base bleed, automated bleed and final base bleed. All that with Bosch ES16-32N fluid (please look it up). That seemed to fix it but 100ish miles later it failed again so I ran the same process but with a pressure bleeder this time and got the same results, fixed for 100ish miles. The original fluid looked bad and I thought I got most of it out, it could've been the wrong fluid. The codes; P25A2, C05B0-00, C2A1B. I can get them to clear but not for long. The C05B0 indicates a leak in the front circuit (which is bone dry) so I'm thinking of doing the bleed process on that front again today and I don't know if that's taboo to just do the front but at this point it seems like it's worth the try anyway. The new master cylinder/module unit is supposed to get here today. But now I'm pretty much convinced this install is over my head. I've called several shops and some mobile guys that I know but this thing is like radio active material, scary wise. I did get 2 local shops say they should be able to do it, one says he has the SPS2 programing capability. And with the battery disconnected is there supposed to be pedal resistance, mine is to the floor, then if I pump it I can get some resistance. I had a panic stop prior to this issue which may have contributed from what I read. And on the first attempt to bleed and hydraulic test the scanner listed things to look for and one was any gaps between the pad and rotors which I did notice on the RF corner and I removed the outer pad (where the gap was) cleaned it and the hardware and didn't see a gap after that but will re-check it. Any suggestions, questions and comments welcome.

      Next Friday will be my 6 week point from my right knee replacement.  The surgeon says it will be fine if I choose to drive after this checkup.  I know I could drive now but best to do as my surgeon (and my wife) tell me.  Richard compared being 62 to 72.  I remember when I was in my early 60's I was experiencing slow but regular decline in my mobility.  Thanks to good medical support,  i continued to fight the speed and spread of this decline. During my 60's I worked on non-surgical methods and just when I turned 70, my orthopedic surgeon recommended joint replacements.  In a little over a year, I had one shoulder and both knees replaced.  This hasn't been a terribly fun experience, but worth the discomfort as my future mobility health trajectory has reversed.  It is a treat to now be watching my mobility. balance and confidence steadily improve!
