Default LED Headlights Turn Off

I just installed LED headlights in a 2015 Jeep Cherokee Latitude. They work when the truck is off. Once started the LED headlights will remain on until the display (low beam out) alarm comes on. This kills power to the headlight. How can I fix this issue.

I just found out from the manufacturer that they need a decoder to work. They are exchanging them out for the correct set.

LEDs in modern CANBUS run cars will trigger the bulb out warning and the vehicle cuts power to that headlight. I'm guessing the decoder is going to a resistor to fake having a halogen headlight.
