    I would try both lights on the side that work to verify if the lights themselves are working. That would rule out bad lights. Then it would indicate a wiring issue.

    I am actually still enjoying the lights. However Ovotor, the company that makes those lights reached out to me and sent me a new set of headlights. I'm testing those out as we speak and I should have a video out the next few weeks about the new set. In short I'm pretty happy with them, but I don't want to spoil the next video. Stay tuned to see them in action and I might just have something special to go along with the video.

    have you cleaned all the grounds under the hood? I have found that a lot of electrical issues get cleared up with all the grounds are clean and intact. Make sure you have the grounding strap from the firewall to the engine head stud. Also make sure the ground at the oil dipstick is clean and connected.

    I'm not familiar with the express 3500. You would need to use a probe or multimeter to find the signal for the driving lights. That's how I found it for the Jeep. On the Jeep the headlight switch has one click and the driving lights turn on. One more click turns on the headlights. Test the harness with no lights on. Then turn the lights switch to accessory or the driving lights. Test to see what wire has power. Then test the switch with the headlights on and see if the power stays constant. If it stays on . It is most likely the driving lights power wire. That would be the one you want.

    Unfortunately I don't have a Toyota to test on. However the company includes an adapter that you can wire the main light to fit you application. You do need to do some trial and error.
