Led tail lights for b6 audi a4
 

Does anyone know a place where they can put resistors on them so that my car stops telling me my tail lights are burnt out?

Hey you can do it yourself its not hard.
Found this lnfo off Audizine.com


This writeup will show you how to remove the bulb out warning in the cluster if you have purchased KaTuning's LED Tail lamps (sold by TMTuning.com). Not sure if Topauto.de's tails are the same, but I suspect they are.

The skill level is about a 5/10 with soldering ability needed.
10 = Master tech
5 = Average Garage monkey
1 = 10yr old son's ability

The equipment you'll need is:
+Wire Cutters
+Pliers
+Soldering Iron
+Solder
+18-20 Guage wire (12 inches total)
+2 100ohm-150ohm 5W-10W ceramic coated resistors
+Heat shrink (various sizes)
+4 squeeze connectors

Start off by cutting four 3" wires. Strip only one end of each wire to expose about 1/2" of wire. Then trim the resistors so that only about 1/2" of the wire coming out of each end of the resistor is showing. Next wrap the wires around the ends of each resistor.

Next solder the wires to the resistors.

Next cut some heatshrink and use the base of the soldering iron to heat up the heatshrink.

Next cut some larger heatshrink and shrink it over the Resistor.

Next use the pliers to clamp the wire squeeze connectors onto the BLACK and GREEN/WhiteStripe wire on the LED Tail Lamp. The Black wire is the ground wire and the Green/WhiteStripe wire leads to the LED's for the running light. The wires are the same for each tail lamp.

Now you're done.

Here's what the Running Lights look like installed on the car with NO Bulb Out Error.

Just got mine in the mail today! I have reading week so once I'm back at school next week I'll use my lab and there supplies to do everything. I'm in the Electronics Engineering Technician program so I know what I'm doing :p
