Morning all! Need some assistance making sure i am troubleshooting properly.

2019 XLT 302A I just swapped in the Morimoto XB headlights last night. What a chore, but I only broke two tabs on the grille! Ran the DRL harness to fuse #19 and kept the sequential signals, and have DRL off on the truck's dash settings. I am having two issues with them, so truck is still in pieces.

1 - I am getting a hyper flash for the driver's (L) turn signal on the dash, lights flash fine outside. It is ONLY the driver's side; passenger does not do it. It also does not hyperflash for hazards. Sequential or standard flash does not make a difference. Thought I may have to reset the BCM?

I swapped the lights to opposite sides (L to R) and the hypeflash DID follow the light. At this point I assume an issue with the light itself? Any more troubleshooting ideas before I call Morimoto?

2- I do not have a start up sequence on any command. Unlock flashes the DRL amber, the first lens lights, and then it clicks off and just the DRL stays lit white. I am not a fan of sequences like that, so it's not a huge problem for me. Thoughts on a setting or something interrupting it?

I had LED turn signals before getting the Morimoto XB headlights. I turned off the hyper flash using Forscan.

As for the start up sequence, only works when you start the engine.

Morimoto got back to me Thurs, and after a half hour phone call and circuit testing, the signal circuit in the Headlight was bad. We believe a capacitor wasn't pulling proper current. A new unit was overnighted and immediately stopped the hyperflash when installed. All functions work properly!

Now to find a level spot to align them...
