When the w5w bulb in rear plate is replaced with a led bulb (even if it's canbus error free) an error is displayed in the Infotainment. It's possible to use VCDS for using led bulbs:

 

-> Controller 09 - Central Electronics

 

-> 16 - Security Access - enter 31347

 

-> 10 - Adaptations

 

Change the 2 channels listed below

 

(1)-Leuchte25KZL HA59-Lasttyp 25  -  set to: 43 - allgemeine LED

 

STG09_Bordnetz_Anpassung_1-Leuchte25kzl-

 

(6) Leuchte25KZL HA59 - Dimmwert AB 25  -  set to 127

 

STG09_Bordnetz_Anpassung_1-Leuchte25kzl-

 

Here you can see the difference between Led (left) and halogen Philips Blue Vision (right):

I fitted canbus error free LED number plate bulbs and don't have an error. :)

I fitted canbus error free LED number plate bulbs and don't have an error. :)

 

Spanish vehicles does  :(

 

Can be due to a different configuration depending on the country

Newly03, can I ask where you bought your LED number plate bulbs from? I would like to mod my vRS in the same manner & don't want to waste money buying error free bulbs that give errors.

Your help is appreciated.

I doubt that, it's more likely the error free bulbs tried weren't right.

Could be true and only expensive led bulbs work fine but, after coding with VCDS, I fitted these for 3,5€ and no problem:

True but at £250 for VCDS I found paying £34 for the LEDs more cost effective. :)

Yes, that's true  :notme:

 

A friend of mine has VCDS and I haven't to pay for it.

£34 for a pair of LED Blubs? You must be bleedin' bonkers.

Give it a rest will ya.

Works fine on my 2015MY :)

This didn´t work on my VRS MY2015  :S

 

I will check for other possible solution.

 

Bought these Leds http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290617035424?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2648&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Just checked that link - you have bought supposed CANBUS error free LEDs, so why are you trying to code for LED bulbs? That is bound to throw an error as there is a resistor across the LED to fool the CANBUS in to thinking there is a bulb there. If you code for LEDs then the you will get an error as the current draw is too high. The BCM will think there is a short to ground and at a guess turn off the bulb.

 

You only need to code for LEDs if you are fitting standard LEDs.

If you are fitting CANBUS error-free then you shouldn't need to do anything.

 

Personally, I never fit anything other than standard LEDs and code accordingly. Anything else is a (potentially dangerous) bodge.

Also try coding to LED Lichtmodul and see if that makes any difference

Even with canbus free error, i had one error in the maxidot/amundsen, like the first post in this thread!

 

Worked with this one: (1)-Leuchte25KZL HA59-Lasttyp 25 ===== (41- LED Keinleistung)

 

Thanks for your support.

I have theese (very bright bulbs) in my license plate light:

(Available from March due to chinese holiday.)

I had some problems with coding. The ECU did not accept the LED bulbs. They were on but I had bulb out warning. I tried several LED options from the list.

The problem was 1) I changed the bulbs 2) then I tried to code them.

So the correct procedure is 1) coding 2) changing the bulbs.

They work fine with "43 - allgemeine LED".

And funnily enough I have the same bulbs, but I might have coded mine to LED Lichtmodul, can't remember! I did the coding first as well :)

I just tried to code this, coding is ok

 but when i fit original LED licence plate lights from a VW passat or audi a7 i still get a fault in the instrument cluster.

does anyone have an idea how to solve this?

I bought the OEM VW ones and followed the instructions on coding out the error on the VCDS Octy MK3 thread. Worked perfectly,for me.

The latest beta of VCDS has a soft reset option for the BCM after coding is complete. I had this same issue with a fellow members car recently where the coding was accepted but the fault was still present. Soft reset fixed it.

You can achieve the same by performing a reset of the lighting through the infotainment if all else fails. ......

I've tried several "error free" canbus LEDs but they all seem to throw up and error code on the dash. Anyone got any ideas without having to recode it?

Cheers

Yes, stop wasting money on supposed error free rubbish, just get normal LEDs and get the coding done.

Groundhog day ............

I left the coding as i had adapted it. after about 2 hours tried again with the oem leds, no more faults and problem solved.

 

thnx a lot guys
