Man I was just about to replace all my interior lights with LEDs too. LOL. I really don't see that LED lights being the issue, but you gotta do what you gotta do to play the game I guess. Definitely keep us in the loop and good luck bud.

Toyota will not move forward until I remove all LED bulbs from my Toyota truck that were not installed by Toyota, we will see where it goes from here.

This has to be a terrible joke...I feel for you. Let us know what the outcome is!

Hopefully it stays away!

Any idea if a specific electrical add-on you did created the issue? Do you plan on reinstalling all your add-ons one by one in an attempt to trouble shoot the problem by process of elimination? What are your thoughts?

Nothing more than what I mentioned in my above posts.
I am leaning towards either the rear light assemblies I put on, rigid reverse lights…. But just guessing at this point.
And Toyota covers everything….. remove your non Toyota LED’s!

I see all kinds of vehicles including police cars that are full of led items! 🤔

If this turns out to be caused/related to aftermarket LED's, that's sad that these new vehicles are so electronic complicated/sensitive that this could even happen.

You mean it hasn't acted up since you removed all the evil LED's. lol

I had a couple of limp mode incidences due to electronics. My 4R really doesn't like my remote start, sometimes it just wont turn over. It seems Toyotas are very sensitive to added electronics.

Yes sir, it hasn’t acted up (reared it’s ugly head) since I removed those evil LEDs!

LEDs bad, halogen good! Hahahah what a joke!
