What is LED CANbus?
Some car models present particular challenges for LED-based retrofit lamps. When upgrading your car with LED retrofit bulbs, challenges may occur such as an error message on the dashboard, flickering or dimmed lights. These error messages don’t mean the LED bulb itself is faulty.
That's why we've developed smart solutions to overcome these challenges. CANbus adapters ensure the vehicle’s lighting systems function smoothly, for reliable electrical performance over time. Please check the LED compatibility list to ensure you buy the right connector ring for your car model!
