#11: Re: Blown bulb warning Author: Tolkienfan001, Location: SpaldingPosted: Wed Jan 16, 2013 12:11 am ---- That's the answer I wanted thanks
#12: Re: Blown bulb warning Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Wed Jan 16, 2013 4:20 am ---- Not if your brake light has gone though and you get pulled over! Or reverse light in my case.
#13: Re: Blown bulb warning Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Wed Jan 16, 2013 6:05 am ---- All simple things that should be checked weekly. Anybody that doesn't spot a headlight being out must be thick.
#14: Re: Blown bulb warning Author: Tolkienfan001, Location: SpaldingPosted: Wed Jan 16, 2013 6:34 am ---- The issue is not a headlight being out. I want to get an LED fog bulb and the don't work if u have a bulb Warner.

They do if you connect the right resistor in the circuit.
Suppliers charge more for error free bulbs when in fact you only need to pay 10p for a resistor. It's just a case of having the knowledge to solder it into the circuit.

#22: Re: Blown bulb warning Author: V9977, Location: Athens, GreecePosted: Sat Jan 19, 2013 7:54 am ---- I think LED are a bit feeble for such use but see..
#23: Re: Blown bulb warning Author: LeeThr, Location: North West WalesPosted: Sat Jan 19, 2013 7:57 am ---- It's just another nanny feature on a car.
I can spot that I've got a headlight bulb out within 2 minutes of driving with it gone. Then i'm looking for the closest garage/shop that sells them if I've already used that type of bulb from my spare bulb kit.

It is.
LED's and even SMDs aren't as bright as the 21w filament bulb. I have a SMD in mine and although it's bright enough to pass the MOT, it's not as bright as I'd like, and a red P21 will be going in once I get to the retailers for a new stock of bulbs.
If you want to put something different in, try a CREE bulb.
