Led light bulbs :/

[jamie.91]

I've just fitted ph2 rear lights on my ph1 172, I've put led indicator bulbs in them and they're flashing twice as fast, as if a bulb has gone, obviously using less power the car doesn't know they are there and thinks a bulb is out, has anybody found a way round this?

I thought about putting a resistor in but I dont know what ohm

Any electrical people on here tell me what setting my multimeter should be on to measure resistance? Then I can match the led bulb to a normal bulb

Thanks Jamie

Nobody?

Use your normal indicator bulbs from your ph1 lights

They're just normal white bulbs, ph2 need orange bulbs, but that's not the point I could use silvervisions but I wanted led

I would try ones that work with "canbus". They will have a built in reisitor.

LED bulbs in that type of light cluster are nowhere near bright enough during the day because of the way the bulb sends out the light (ie. forwards).
