LED Glow
« on: November 06, 2011, 12:38:11 am »
Anyone experienced this with interior replaced LED bulbs?



Seems light there is some voltage running through them even though there not on, anyway to sort this out?

Cheers,

Zaf

You need to use canbus safe bulbs then they won't do this. Do they work ok when switched on?

Cheers Mike,

Although when I set the light position to "Off" completely (not come on when open doors) there is no glow at all

Unless I'm being daft, the cambus dose not monitor your interior bulbs, so no need for "canbus friendly"

I thought that but it's the fact they have built in resistors I think. Maybe wrong.
