Default Lamp out alarm

I put a flat bed on my 2004 3500 diesel and all the lights work great, but the lamp out light comes on and the alarm chime goes off all day long in surges. I would like to know how to disable the noise or the cure for the problem. It also makes me curious if the LED lights are pulling enough juice?

Its possible that you are going to need to install a resistor in the line to fool the lighting into thinking everything is ok
I had the same prob when I put LED tail lights in another truck.
I had to put a 50 ohm resistor in the circut to get the flasher to work right.

The FCM monitors the lights, that is the silver box on the side of your Intergrated Power Module. If the lamp out indicator is lit, then you have your tail lamps wired wrong. Did you connect the tail lamps to the trailer tow circuits?
