LED Indicator Replacment Bulbs

Featured Replies

Hi

 

ive bought 3 different types of LED replacements bulbs off Amazon over the past few weeks. First two sets didn’t work and the car beeps every few seconds saying there was a bulb out. I then found out I needed Canbus LED replacement bulbs to stop the car from complaining about the bulbs. 

 

Found a a decent set of Orange Canbus LED bulbs for £15. I thought at this point I had this in the bag but these again didn’t work. No errors but the indicator blinked fast like most Fords do when an indicator bulb is blown.

They work fine when the Hazard button is pressed but not when you incidcate left or right. I’ve tried putting the new bulbs in the front and back then just in the back, then finally just in the front and all give the same results. This is my last resort to see if it’s possible and not to waste more time on Amazon. 

 

Anyone got any ideas? Any suggestions are very much appreciated. 

Cheers

Luke



LED bulbs have a much lower resistance than standard bulbs hence the car thinking one has blown and causing the rapid flash & canbus errors.
You need to put inline resistors between the bulbs and connectors.
