BACKUP SENSORS WACKY

I hope someone has a good solution for my problem with LED back-up lights. Bulbs are from V-Leds (V6 EXTREME Reverse Light), and added the license plate light (LPR LED Back Up Light). Since adding the LPR, my reverse sensors beep intermittently when in reverse. They should be silent until they detect something in range, they should beep steadily, then increase frequency as they get closer to the object. They do operate properly when I'm ~14" from the object they sound continuous. I could live with the irattic beeping but I would like them to operate properly. Can anyone who understands LED's and electrical tell me if there is a fix?

Here is what I have. And if anyone wants to know, yes they are very bright!

Look into a load equalizer. The reverse sensors might require a certain load on the circuit to function correctly. If you reinstall standard bulbs and it goes back to normal, then the LEDS are the issue.
