They no longer sell them I think
As I said, for the cost I expected better

Hi, i have some dlectrical training and as i see it, you all are using load resistors in paralel.
Why?
If u used them in serial to leds they would need be just 5w, not 50w, as i reckon.
How does the canbus detect them exactly?
Regards...
Can bus doesn't care if you put candles in there. It's just a bus made from couple of wires. But if iremember correctly then whatever controls lights needs around 0.7 amp draw in drl mode to not trigger warning.
two loads are added to make the DRL dim down error free
add one load only and ether side light or drl mode with have an error message
and the drl will stay in ether drl mode or side light mode only
two loads solves this problem and makes the drl dim down and work in drl mode error free
the drl is also linked to the main beam headlight bulb in side light mode
so 50w loads are used to combat this and to stop the cambus finding low wattage and giving errors
That makes sense, but why not put one load in serial at negative line? Should not that make the same result?

I just played a bit with lights on my car.
Rear right tailgate lights also throw code 22, same as front right dlr. code 21 for left. Guest dlr+4 tailgate lights are on the same canbus and it measures ampere load. All on one side would have common negative.
Does that makes sense?

YEP tail lights are also linked to the drl
you can try but but when i tryed that the drl just stayed bright and would not dim
Hey guys, I'm looking at upgrading my drl's to led's with the help from this post, was just wondering if someone could post up a new link with the bulbs you find best to use, I've tried clicking on previous link from hid s direct however it says page not found, guessing they don't do that bulb anymore as it was from atleast a year ago haha
Thanks in advance
Cheers rusty will get them ordered ?
They're fine.

Ok so I have tried to fit my led drl's today and I can't get the sidelight to work on it, it comes on for about 2 seconds then turns off, tried changing everything round but just won't stay on, but didn't get it to flick between both at all, it's for hid s direct, any suggestions?
have you added load resistors is it for gtc or astra j
Astra j, load resistors was added
What bulbs have you used and you did add. two loads
Bulbs are ok I fitted some to a gtc the other day so your wiring is wrong so recheck that
Whats happening with images on this post? HAlf of them are missing, ex. Schematics from 1st page, bulb examples from 2nd page.
I just wanted to start modding my DLRs but have no info

I will check when I get home
Would this set up also be the same for a Insignia as well? Pre facelift model.
yes if the DRL is on the canbus then the same will apply
Hello,
I bought the CAN bus LEDS
http://www.dobry-obchod.cz/produkt/95243...vouvlakno/
but ofc there is error on the dash-board. Only solution which I found is to add resistors. I don't want to drill the hole into the headlight back.
Is it possible to add resistors into the fuse box ? or any other place on the way to CANbus check part?
Sorry for my English... I'm from Czech republic.
Thanks,
Jan

No canbus bulbs work without errors on the J DRL's.
You could try tapping a resistor onto Grey/Dark-Blue wire coming out pin 9 on the headlight plug.
Your English is very good by the way.

many thx for reply !!! do you have any photo of this plug? And you mean to add this resistor on both? gray one and blue one?

Yes I've attached a image showing the plug and numbers.
Ok so the wires should be
Grey/Dark Blue on left headlamp (one wire It's just has a tracer strip)
Dark Blue/Brown on right headlamp (one wire It's just has a tracer strip)
Hids direct have just brought out a new LED DRL with new chip which is meant to be error, another chap has brought a set as soon as I hear the results I'll post back here.

Waiting on feedback on the 5 door as well - might consider getting.
The one I have currently are error free LED T20, but do not dim down. Had it for a year, left side is not working on side light mode anymore - which rightfully gives an error now. Just ordered replacements - its about half the price of the HID direct T20 LEDs.
I pay £10 for halogen bulbs from Halfords so £15 for LED's seems reasonable to me if they do work error free without the need for additional resistors.

Hello again ! today I have received these bulbs from Hids direct - but on the backside there is number 4014 and not 3014 as on the web.
Is that correct ? Should I return them?
