Installed new canbus/error free LED's in the parking lights tonight. Looks great and works fine on drivers side. However, it has an intermittent blink on the passenger side. I checked the bulbs side to side and the issue is only related to the passenger side only. It also throws the error code on the command center.


Can anyone tell me why it only occurs on one side? I have similar canbus/error free lights on order for the entire car. I hope not to experience similar issues with those.....

I use LED's in everything I own. I am still learning about the European electrical system....it's just a bit more touchy than the domestics!

Thanks in advance!

I think one bulb is bad, or you may have the polarity reversed , check if there is a + - sign on the base, then reverse them.
But if one is bad, it will screw up the whole system and show a fault irratically

can you show pics?

I can get both bulbs to work correclty on the drivers side. However, neither work correctly on the passenger side. They both flash when on the pass side. If I change the polarity (reverse the bulb) they don't work at all....

I will post photos when I get home this evening. I have been researching this today and can't seem to make any sense of it.

cool. what kind of intake setup do you have there?

I think you need different bulbs, get t-10 error free leds off ebay, and get ones that dont look like the ones you have. get the ones that are a single one piece rectangle that are called spade style, they have one round led emitter on each side

I have ordered new style LED's already. I was thinking that same thing and after sharing PM's with a few meembers I decided to try another set. They should be in sometmie this week. I will let you all know how it turns out. Just for FYI, these were error free. I tried another set of error ambers (I have them currently in the corner lights & work fine there) in the parking lights...and same deal happens.

The intake is a custom setup I put together. Puchased pre-bent stainless 3" pipe, 6" K&N offset filters, clamps and 3" air couplers. I used the offset filters with bent tubes to get the angle correct to accept flow as it comes in from the grille area and to stay away from the belt on the pass side. I took out the factory filters and sealed the edges of the factory filter boxes with double sided foam tape to seal it up tight.

I have not had it on a dyno yet. Still waiting to do other work fisrt. The car seems to like it and it feels like it has a bit more pep. I was somewhat worried about bringing in hot air from the engine bay. Again, the car seems to really like it so I plan on leaving it that way unless it poses issues in the future but I really dont see that being the case.

Cost me more for the 2 filters that anything else really....I will post addtional photos of it when I get a chance....

Views of Intake....

sweeeeeeet

Damn I like that intake. Do you notice any sound or IAT difference? Thanks.

It has a bit more sound but it's hard to hear much over the exhaust mods...lol I haven't really driven her enough since I installed it to really log the IAT info to see if there has been a change. I will update soon, Thanks.
