Radio signal dies only when LED Headlights are on. Weird :0 -Solved

I had that problem of one not staying on when remote start was used. Click the brights on and off then it would hit. Started setting the E brake just so lights would stay off while starting, works but a pain to remember.

Soon I will power the LEDs with an external 12 volt source to see if it still has an effect on the radio.

I got and installed a set of LED Headlights on my truck
I did see a review from one user saying that he had the same radio interference issue with the first generation of the headlight  but the second gen didn't. So far mine has been installed for 3 days and no problems. I like the light output better but the lack of a cutoff is the one thing bothering me.

Been so busy with the E-Fan mod, I put this on the back burner. Actually I did order some bypass capacitors to build a filter network. I really don't want to spend money on another set; trying the cheap stuff 1st.

Did some more testing today after I changed my oil.

Externally supplying 12 volt power still causes interference, so it's not a line feedback.

Using high frequency capacitors on the supply side does not work either.

Looks like replacing the lamps is the only solution.

Well I fixed the problem today. I replaced them. Same vendor, new generation product with a large LED on each side for 360 illumination. Much better light and no noise. $79.99 deliver to my door in 2 days.
