Did you install a new ignition switch? That's what happened to me. The new switch wasn't wired the same as the old one. :blink:

I'm sure you double checked all the connections you had to mess with while installing the LED. Triple check them. Also make sure nothing else around was disturbed, and don't forget about the fuses.

Did the connections match up wire for wire when putting in the new light? Somehow, somewhere, there's a break in that circuit. Gotta complete it.
