you have to have the right WORKING bulbs and then the error will automatically go away after you turn off the car and turn it back on.

if the new bulbs are not the exact right ones you will get the error back, and if the old ones are not working you will get the error.

also a common problem i have had with these cars is that the bulb socket will get dirty and would not get contact, which will cause the error, just make sure you clean the socket and the socket contacts have no residue on them.
