Error free WeissLicht LED bulbs on F30

I was reviewing different products available online as well stock LED fog lights on F32.

I realized F32 ones would need more work in addition to coding to get rid of cold start error.

I bought WeissLicht LED bulbs with a set of cancellers. And it turned pretty well good bulbs, except the fact they flicker and it is noticeable. Overall though, I like the colour of these bulbs, and now will consider coding to turn fog lights while parking lights only on.

Installation was straight forward except the fact that you need to zip tight canceller on a metal part to prevent burning (they become extremely hot).


Included a few pictures in here, and you can see my bi-xenon are kinda more yellowish comparing to the fog lights.

I have the same set of LED fog lights and coded insteaded of using the cancellers. However, I recently noticed that the LED fogs are very dimly lit even in the off position and is especially noticeable at night, even with the headlights and the ignition off. Wondering if it's my part in coding the error checking incorrectly or if the current is flowing through the LEDs at a very low voltage.

I would give bimmian a shot and let them know about this.

If they worked fine, coding to remove error shouldn't really matter.

I'll shoot them an email but have a feeling they'll respond by saying that since I did not use the cancellors that they can not help me.
