LED Side light error code
Just recently replaced my interior and exterior bulbs to LED ones, all seem to be working fine and drastically change the look of the car however I keep getting a 'check right side light' code even though the bulb is working fine , even when the code appears. Any ideas or suggestions on how to remedy this code ?
Re: LED Side light error code
Did you get canbus LED bulbs?
I have this problem too. thew bulb works fine when I start the car then about 30seconds of driving I get the error on the dash but the bulb still works but sometimes flickers

Re: LED Side light error code
Even with Canbus friendly LEDs (resistor in parallel) it can be marginal and not draw enough current so that it flags a bulb error. Sometimes if you swap the LEDs over the difference can be enough for them to work and not give an error.
