Ok, so the 97-98 MKVIII can tell if you have a light out and report back to you. This is called the CAN-BUS system, correct? The 94 back-half I have grafted to my 97 front half works great with regular old 3157/3457 bulbs. As soon as I install LEDs in the brake/turn/park position, the 'Check brake light', 'Check Rear Turn' messages illuminate and the bulbs flash fast, as though a bulb were out (even with the LEDs working properly.
I know this is a proper function with standard LED bulbs installed as CAN-BUS is not getting proper amperage readings. Now, when I install the LED bulbs supposedly meant (and marked for CAN-BUS systems) for this system, I STILL get those same results.
What LED bulbs work, or will I have to wire in a 100ohm resistor no matter what LED bulb I go with?
