Hey guys, first post here and it might be a stupid one but...

I own a W203 2000 C240 and I've recently installed the Azn Optics W5W LED 5000k wedge bulb for my park lights and to match that I also installed the Philips Diamond Vision H7 bulbs for my low beams, however, it appears to have some sort of yellow tint to it and some sort of yellow light is blocking the white light from being produced? I'm also getting a "check right parking light" error ever since I've installed the Azn Optics park lights.

I have added images below to try and show whats going on.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Welcome to the forums.
Your low beam will not be able to be the same color as your LED parking light. Halogen bulbs are not the color of HIDs simply because HIDs use Xenon gas, a heavier gas that burns much hotter- hence emitting blue light. Kinda the same way that the hottest part of a flame is blue. Also, the reason you're likely getting the parking light problem is because LEDs have much less current draw than conventional bulbs, and thus the computer is noticing and thinking your bulb. Canbus controls the bulb-out sensing, and is the bane of my existence. Best of luck in the future.

Thank you for the reply.

It's just really confusing because I see pictures of the Philips Diamond vision halogens all the time and they appear to be a bright white colour where as mine has a ugly yellow tint.
I've also read about Azn Optic bulbs having a resistor to prevent this error from popping up?

Our wedge units are canbus plug and play error free. That said, if it's only one side, chance that either the bulb was damaged in transit (we test all units during processing) or your socket needs some cleaning as grime could be causing interference. One easy way to check is to swap the city lights left to right and see if the issue follows the LED or stays on the socket. If you do have a faulty unit, you're covered under warranty and we can get a replacement sent out to you. Just shoot us an email at aznoptics@gmail.com
