2005 SC430 bulb replacement warning light on after installing LED break light bulbs. Anyone know how to fix this problem? Thanks.

Sometimes replacement of some light within a circuit with LEDs can cause this. Try swapping in the OEM style incandescent bulbs to see if it fixes the problem.

Thanks. Yes, the OEM incandescent bulbs worked fine. I just wanted to upgrade the bulbs to LED because they are brighter and lite up faster. I found the solution to this which is to add a load resistor for each bulb or buy the LED bulb with the build-in resistor. BTW, the brake light bulb type for 05 SC430 is 7443.

Thanks for the tip. I knew it had something to do with the resistance of the bulbs but did not look up the specifics.
