Just replaced my license light in rear after struggled 1/2 hour on getting linen off and on. Now it still have a warning light on. I guess the voltage of the LED is different than 2825...

That has to be coincidence, the warning light is only for the brakes.

That's weird because I had the same problem when I did my LED bulbs on my license plate also but it did turn out to be a bad brake light bulb and I have not had any problems with putting in LED bulbs for the license plate.

I had this happen to me before around the time I installed my white rear plate LEDs. Try taking your rear brake lights and snapping them back into it's location. I thought I had installed mine back in correctly but I didn't and it kept lighting up this orange car with the lines by the trunk on my dash. That's the brake light indicator when it's done or when it's not installed correctly all the way. It has to "pop" back in.... Maybe that can be the cause of your problem. Let us know what happens bro. #GODBLESS

One problem I had was I didn't put the correct bulbs in. In the third brake light there are 5 bulbs. I replaced them all with 194s and the light came on in the dash. I couldn't figure it out because all of my lights we're working. It wasn't until I figured out that they were supposed to have 168 bulbs not 194s. I put in 168s and the dash light went out. Make sure you're using the right bulbs.
