ABS Light Question

Ok here's the deal. All lights would come on with the key, then once running all would go off including the ABS light.
I just had my PSOM refurbished and while it was apart I replaced all the dash lights with LEDs....

Now when I turn on the key all lights light up and all then go out once running...EXCEPT for the ABS light....it dims, but doesn't go out compmetely. With the key on it is definitely much brighter...but once running it's still definitely visible but not nearly as bright.

I thought it would be on or off...not on, dim or off...the only thing that changed was the PSOM and the LED lights. I only changed dash lights.

Ideas?

Change the ABS lamp back to an incandescent bulb. A very common issue when trying to use LEDs in the instrument cluster.

Didn't know that. Aside from the light, it won't cause any issues I assume?
Thanks.

No issues, just annoying.
