Light bulb error message fix

Either my memory serves me correctly or I am slowly losing my marbles. I believe that i have read somewhere in the past that by upgrading the mirror turn signal lights with LED strips that this corrects the problem of error messages popping up with other lights that are in perfect working order with lots of life left in them. I think it had something to do with these lights causing an error that interrupted the whole circuit? I've searched for a while and can't find my exact answer, if anyone knows this will help me tremendously. With the help of the DIY on how to upgrade the mirror turn signals i plan on doing it regardless but if this fixes the pain in my a$$ of constant messages popping up i will be replacing them ASAP. Thank you in advance for any insight!

one of the led's is not working in your side marker lights thats why you are getting the message, when you get new ones the message will go away, it is and easy upgrade, if you go on youtube there will be a video on how to remove the housing for the mirrors and the old lights screw out and screw in the new ones, sometimes the new ones come without plugs so just slide the wires in the socket and tape real good. good luck
