Reverse bulb upgrade - snapshot11 - 1:st-Jan-2016

Hi so ive upgraded my tail lights to LED works fine tail light are not on the Canbus however the reverse bulb is and its causing an error does anyone know if there are any plug and play resistor kits for this part of the lighting system as it has a different connector and the bulb is the offset type i cannot see any. I dont want to be cutting wiring and i am using a canbus error but its not pulling enough power clearly thanks.

Only thing you could do is add a resistor on the Rev light wire which LED bulb did you use (do you have a link)?

Similar to the reg plate bulbs in mine...most don't have any issues but mine come up with an error...odd

That's the same bulb I have.

I would suggest a resistor on the Rev light wire then
