Yes, it could cause trouble.
There have been mixed results. I changed over to https at the end of December and immediately lost all of my good ranking results. I waited a week or 2 and then dropped back to the http and managed to get my results back mostly. They are still bouncing some. Don't know if it was from the https or not.
Other people have switched and seen their results move with them or shortly thereafter.
My suggestion would be that if you do not have anything that needs https protection (forms with personal info input) then DO NOT switch.
If you do decide to change it out then make sure you have a good backup ready to drop back to.
Good luck no matter which way you go.
