On my xenons I have them set at around 5-10% so the orange is near gone and it just leaves the nice yellowy glow which tie's in with the side lights.

Tried this on my halogen's, looks cool. 

However, each time my indicator goes on when the lights are on it comes up with a bulb out error - anyone any ideas of a workaround? (Not turning off the light out diagnosis though!)

I get this too, is there something else that needs to be done?

Have a look at reply 15, top of page 2. I just followed that and it worked. Bare in mind they will only be on if sidelights or headlights are on not all the time.

Matto,

I have just tried again, this mod must be specific to the controller module fitted.
I have no problem locating and going into Central Electronics - 09

I do not have the option of "byte 7"?
I can see this area does appear to control the lighting on the vehicle however I can not see option of "turn signal as parking light".

If anyone can help I would be grateful :happy2:

Cheers guys


Just tried it and getting the same too? Anyone help?

This is something I may try, do they light up if you have your light switch on auto or do you have to turn it to side or dip?

Just been out and done this mod  :driver: set to 50% look spot on and best of all they do work when the light switch is on AUTO :jumpmove: mine is always set on auto so im pleased
