New LED Motolights Causing FM Radio Static. Any Suggestions?
2011 FLHX. Just put on LED Motolights, which are activated through the Accessory switch on the dash.
When the Motolight LED's get turned on, I immediately get FM radio static. This happens when using either the stock HD antenna, an under-the-fairing hidden antenna, or both.
I tried moving the Motolight wiring harness and antenna cables to different areas under the fairing, but no luck.
I'm almost afraid to put my HD LED Daymaker on tomorrow.
Is this to be expected when using LED's?
Any suggestions?
Thanks

I have the TL ph7 and did not have the issue. I added the Kury LED driving lights and the problem started. I ended up removing my HD Boom audio hidden antenna. Problem solved. I then mounted my HD shorty antenna inside the fairing and still have no issues. Your moto lights might be more powerful than my Kurys, which may be the problem. I can't give you any further info, just what I experienced.

I had the same problem when I put on my LED running lights

It's RF noise and you won't get rid of it. See the Post. I found an alternative LED light I will be testing in a few days and will report back. Half the price of the Moto's and twice the lumens
