Has anyone install the LED tail light? Do you how to bypass or fix the "lamp out" warning light? I just bought the smoke LED tail light and when I install it the dash warning light come one. I really like the LEDs look but the dang thing threw a warning light.

thanks

Peter. I've have the "Wave" style LED taillights made by Eagle Eyes brand on my car for close to a year and I've never had any problems with lamp error messages. What brand are your taillights?

Got mine off ebay Hong Kong right after they first came out. The box says Eagle Eyes BZ076-BURE4. They are the wave type LED's non smoked. They also sell a smoked version. The link you posted looks pretty much identical to the ones I have except smoked. Did you get resistor boxes with your taillights? Mine came with a resistor box for each side and I've never had any problems. Are you sure its the LED's tripping the warning and that you don't just have one of the regular blinker or backup bulbs burned out? Are all the connections clean and tight? As I mentioned I have had zero problems so I really don't have much help for you.

Each side come with 2 resistor pack and all bulb are working. I reinstall the factory one back on and no dash warning light. so I don't see why it trip a warning light. It really suck that i have to return them beacuse the light look really nice at night.

Sorry I'm not much help. Have you tried just installing the passenger side LED taillight and leaving the stock MB drivers side taillight to see if it throws up a warning and then doing the other side the same way. Perhaps only one of your LED taillights or resistors is messed up and you can isolate the problem that way.

Installing LED bulbs in these cars create nothing but problems for you with the "LAMP OUT" warning lights....resisters or not, LED's are not designed for these models....
Trust me I know...I just wasted my money on bulbs that set off all my warning lights!
