SammyV · 02-21-2007, 03:09 PM

I read this thread
http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=367566

and created what it stated, however i still have the bulb out warning on dash, any help?

I had halogen lights, and bought an HID kit from visionbulbs. Anyone have any insight as to how to trick the car into thinking there is still halogen bulbs attached?

TIA

You can do one of 3 things: get the ecu flashed by the dealer, install a set of resistors or pull fuse 32 to disable the bulb out warning.

Nick thanks for the reply, what resistors for the headlights are you referring too? I wouldnt have a problem mounting a couple resistors to fix this error

That will cure my headlight bulb out after swapping to xenons?
Same resistors i have for my LED signals?

Either that, or pull fuse 32, or take it to the dealership for a reflash.
