Hi,
I have fitted two front LED side lights recently beacause they are brighter and emit a whiter light.
Problem is they have thrown up a bulb error on the dash. Lights are working but the computer says no!
So is there a way to reset this error or is it because it doesnt recognise the LED's?
Thanks in Advance.

I think some add a small resistor across the led to fool the cars monitoring system into thinking that there is still a conventional bulb fitted. When an led is fitted the system thinks the bulb has failed.

Hey,
You can do as mab01uk says or you can buy led bulbs with this already fitted.

It might be problem of loose connection. Firstly you should check the installation of light. Probably i think you will get the solution there.

I used LED's as headlights. Working well. I think you need a help of some expert.

the leds lights need a resistor adding, first, you can buy them pre done and ready to go or solder one across it yourself....simples!

Led as a headlight??? Does this even exist or even legal?
