[QUOTE="bprsnt, post: 1099917, member: 14245"] [b]Gave the Recons one more chance[/b] My Recon tail lights were installed by Ford when I bought the truck new. The tail lights have always been glitchy and had intermittent issues from the get go. I noticed in the past that the load resistors Ford installed were taped to the wiring harness. I thought it was strange being there were mounting holes on the resistors to secure them to the truck body. I ended up buying the exact load resistors like SuperBright on Amazon. (Just search 6 ohm 50 watt) When I received the resistors there was a warning sticker stating that they MUST be mounted to steel frame or will overheat. I simply mounted the new load resistors on the flat body panel inside behind the tail light and have had ZERO issues since. The resistors are wired in parallel with the signal/Brake light. [/QUOTE]
