Can Aftermarket LED Bulbs Mess with Your Key Fob Remote?

[LASFIT]

Recently, we heard from a Lasfit customer who shared their experience after installing some aftermarket lights:

"I put a pair of your switchback fog lights in my 2020 Honda Civic. I got them as a gift. After installing them, my remote start from my key fob stopped working. Is this a known issue? If so, is there a workaround?"

While this isn't a common issue—typically, lights shouldn't interfere with your vehicle's other systems—it did happen!

Have you ever had your key fob remote act up after installing aftermarket LED bulbs? How did you fix it? Share your story below!

One way to find out is to disconnect the lights and see if remote start works. If there is no change then maybe it was in the connection area.
