I ordered a full set of high and low-beam LEDs from Headlight Revolution in April of 2025 (GTR Ultra 2 LED High Beams and CSP Mini LED Low Beams), and installed them without incident. They have fans in their assembly for heat dissipation, which I can hear running when I shut down the truck. Great improvement in brightness and I have been happy with them.
Since the onset of summer in Arizona, I'm sure they are running hot, and I do typically leave my lights on during the day. Recently I noticed that the driver's side headlight appeared to have gone out, and verified it when I arrived home at night that it was indeed unlit.
The next day I pulled the light bulb out and unplugged it - it looked like the bulb was fine, but the plastic plug assembly from the truck appeared to have a brown stain as if from overheating. I opened a ticket with Headlight Revolution and was told I would have to send them a photograph of the light bulb assembly literally broken in half to prove it was nonfunctional, but I see no easy way to do that. While mulling it over I went ahead and reinstalled it - then it started working again. To avoid overheating I turned the lights off during the next couple of days, but then it was out again the other night when I got home.
I have had at least one person tell me that the truck wasn't designed for LEDs, and that I am probably going to keep having this issue - but would love to get some input from the community here. The lights were advertised by HR as being for 2019-2023 Rangers, there is a very good YouTube video showing installation, and I see no damage to the bulb itself. Any ideas or next steps would be welcome!
