You need to now install a load equalizer in order to fool your ECM into thinking that you have conventional bulbs, which pull more current than LED's do.

Not sure if the system is the same, but after putting LEDs on my 2005 CVO Fat Boy, I had to install a load equalizer to keep that light off: https://www.kuryakyn.com/products/41...load-equalizer
