I got the Xentec kit from tony on SJ. I know I wired everything correct but I'm still having this flashing issue. When I unlock my doors and the headlights cut on my drivers side flashes off once then it cuts on and stays on. But it's only when the car isn't running. I swapped the ballisters, bulb, relay with the other side and it's still only that side doing it. I even rewired everything and moved the groung to a more secure place and still the same thing. I don't know what else to do. here's a video of what it's doing. Look how the right side flashes off really quick.

Nate-go into your Jeep step menu and turn off the lights flashing when you unlock. One thing that will shorten the life of the bulbs. Second.....its not good for the ballsts to be turned on and then right off.

You know what? I thought I did change that but either when we were doing the led's and I unplugged the bat or when I was rewiring things at my house and I dis connected the bat I think it reset. But I'll do that now.

I would also check to make sure you have a clean ground

Yeah...I was about ask...why do you want the lights to come on when you unlock it?? Just disable it...and I'm sure you'll be fine....
Same thing with the headlight delay when you get out...to me...its kinda pointless....

Well I'll have the dual LED's soon so that'll be nice approach feature. Just my street is really dark at night so the headlight delay was kinda nice.

Ohh...well if you use it...then its all good...lol..
Can you turn off the: "Turn headlights on when unlock" and keep the headlight delay?

its easy to keep the lights on wehn you shut off the car!!! when you are gonna turn off the car leave the lights on and then shut off the truck. after you shut off the truck turn the lights on and they will stay on for however many seconds you have it set for. mine is set for 30 or 60 secs and then you can disable the lights on unlock!!! the dual leds should be easy to do

Not sure if this helps, but i was having an issue with my drivers side HID flashing while driving and shut off a few times. After messing with the whole thing it ended up working properly by splice tapping another ground wire from the harness to the body. zero issues since then. maybe this will help anyone with flashing issues, its usually the ground from what I hear.
