Euro lights

[G600]

No worries

I’d suggest LEDriving premium from OSRAM. You’ll get better output with no colour on the bulb and it will last longer. Not sure if the fog is monitored, if so code out the checks.

Here's my chromed red lights fron the link above, delivered in a frigging jiffy bag. Sigh.

[Timmyboybunter]

It gave me a good laugh at least

[Scooba_Steve]

Get the OSRAM, good excuse now. About £15 the pair on Amazon

Thanks for the link - do you know if that would throw up any error codes?

[Scooba_Steve]

I don’t have a pre facelift, but if the bulbs are monitored then they will. Easy test, unplug bulb and see if you get a warning. If so then need Carly or ncs to code out the check. Worth the hassle for LED vs bulb imho

[Timmyboybunter]

Ok thanks - they are monitored from what I've read, but I have Carly so no problem.

The fog is checked and carly doesn't give you the option on the fog to code it out. I asked carly to add it and basically got a response of "the E85 is a really old car now and we prioritise the newer stuff so won't be doing anything with your request" talk about customer service!

I've got the 4 white spots rear lights on mine and I've got some extra bright canbus leds in white in mine from halfords. I use the fog as an extra reversing light when needed. I never really use mine as a fog but if I did its a quick switch to the red bulb. When I start mine the fog flashes faintly about 10 times which is the light unit doing its self testing to make sure everything works. On non led bulbs there isn't enough current sent to light the bulb so you never see it flash, but obviously leds are different and there's just enough to make it work faintly

Thanks for the info - I've ordered the LED bulbs now

I have INPA up and running, can that disable the fog light monitoring perhaps?

[Scooba_Steve]

Nope but if you can manage to install INPA then NCS (and ncs dummy) is easy and can do everything available.

Cheers - completed using NCS today, little bit daunting for a first timer but very easy come the end.

Disabled cold and hot monitoring for the rear fog, dash warning has gone away. Result

What were the lines of code you changed? I need to have a go at this myself.
