Hey guys,
I got some LED bulbs for the plates online, and have just fit them but have a bit of a problem;
Unfortunately when I switch on the ignition the lights come on for about 3-4 seconds (if you're quick to the back!) and then go off again..
Does anyone know why that is? I've heard stuff about resistors because the power usage is lower so the car thinks a bulb is blown and shuts off the circuit - but would that give me the on/off again symptom?
On another note - the ones I got are slightly longer than the originals although they fit - would that have anything to do with it? :S
Any help appreciated!
Cheers,
Dan
