Whoa - flashing LED parker lights

[clip]

This is a bit funky, but has anyone else that has replaced their front parkers with LED's noticed that when you turn your ignition on only with the headlight switch off (i.e. not on Auto), that the parkers now flash about 4 times? I only noticed last night when the car was parked in the garage and noticed it as they reflected off the wall. Maybe it did it with standard bulbs too, but never noticed it - although my headlights are normally always on auto mode and it doesn't do it then (or maybe it does, just that I can't see it because the headlights come on too).

Also, another interseting thing I've noticed with the LED interior overhead bulbs, they will glow slightly if you turn off the rear mirror auto dimmer (some voltage leak through the system?)

Coupled with the aftermarket SatNav I have, I guess the CBus system is having an apoplectic fit everytime I turn on the ignition!

Yeah ... I think your battery is about to cark it clip!

No, it is the radiation of the electromagnetic field from his mobile phone.






just kidding of course.

Where did you get the LED parkers from?

lol, and all this time I was thinking it was my electromagnetic personality that was doing it!

no, it's only when the car's running, they do switch off.

Good question, I'll have to sort through and see if I can find the order. Got them thru fleabay in the states, just can't remember the company, but they are the error free ones - if that makes any difference.
