I bought a set of 4 LED Switchbacks last week and was in the process of installing them this weekend and ran into a snag. the bulbs are 1157.

I bought a LED Compatible relay a while back to use with my tail lights, and during the testing of the Switchbacks, the park lights would not come on (in the front), the side marker lights and rear lights work fine...but the switchbacks will not light up with JUST park lights on.

When you turn on a turn signal, they flash alternating colors as they are supposed to.

any ideas?
