HeadLight LED Fault

Post by EasyRider »

So i fitted error free LED bulbs to the low and high beam.
When i tested them on the bike without the engine running everything was ok.
Today i was able to start the bike for the first time since fitting them.
The low and high beams are still working as they should, but its now giving me and open circuit error for both.
Any thoughts please.

So from what i've just been reading, even though there error free LED bulbs the resistance could still be off enought to flag up the canbus warning light on the clocks.

The Cyclops LED bulb set seem to be the most popular as they work with no reported errors, but they are pricey.
