Title: What resistor?
Post by: Weston on February 27, 2012, 07:56:46 pm

What resistor should I use to trick the canbus system into thinking my fog lights are still there once I've fitted DRL's?

I know I can disable them with VCDS if I can get access.

I have recently fitted LED fog bulbs and I had bulb out error on dash, then I chucked these inline and voila, a happy canbus  :wink:
