switching to LED headlights... pulsing

I just replaced my original factory lights with these below. Everything plugged in ok but now when I crank up and it runs a while, the lights al start pulsing and one plug on the drivers side on the light gets really hot but the others do not. If I unplug one of them they stop... I lack really bad in the electrical department. These lights have a blue light that was ran seperately onto a toggle i side. Lights are flashing with just the regular beams on so I dont think its that. The new ones have three prongs on all four lights whereas the old o es had three and two on the outside lights. Isnthe original wire guage too small or something? Any help greatly appreciated

Re: switching to LED headlights... pulsing

i bought some similar ones for my car on amazon tho (these
Amazon Amazon
) . are you using h4 bulbs? i swapped over to 4 H4 bulbs. all 4 come on low. and all 4 high. i used halogen h4 bulbs. i also made 2 new harness with ceramic headlight connectors. first one was too long but funtional.

what lights are flashing? the halo lights? are you using led headlights? i just ran the halos to the side markers. you have to move your headlight connector prongs around
