Over the winter I installed a set of LED headlights from Vintage Car LED.

I just took m first drive with them and there is some strange goings on.

1) I turned on the lights, start driving down the road and they blinked on and off for a second. Couple miles later they did it again. And then again as I got closer to home on a bumpy section of road.

2) none of the dash lamps on my gauge cluster light up any more.

3) my Piloti driving lights will not turn on either.

A glance at my fuse panel did not show any glowing fuses, but I did not pull them out to inspect so that could be an issue. Turn signals and break lights work fine.

My guess is that something is going on with the headlight switch.
Opinions? Other things to check?
