Coding: Rear LED Brake Bulbs and Turn Signal Bulbs

oceanview · 03-30-2017, 09:19 AM

Hi
I replaced the rear brake and turn signal bulbs with LED.
Also I replaced the front turn signal bulbs with LED.

Where do I have to code those rear LED in the E-SYS?
I could code the front turn signals in E-SYS as recommended. Everything works fine for the front.
>FEM_BODY
>3061
>FRA_V_L_KALTUEBERWACHUNG
and so on.

But I could not find the coding for the rear bulbs as listed in a coding cheat sheet.
>FEM_BODY/REM
>3061
>FRA_R_L_KALTUEBERWACHUNG

Actually the "FEM_BODY/REM" .ncd is missing and not listed in E-SYS.
What is the CAFD_ID of the needed file?

However, no rear bulb warning pops up in the dashboard. (It did show up for the front turn signals before coding, but no fault message for the rear LED's. Strange...)
Is coding for the rear bulbs really needed?

Car is F31.

Thx.

I would presume by FEM_BODY/REM they mean one or the other (maybe even both?) I'm currently having this issue as my rear brake bulbs have started flickering even with the correct coding

I have just posted a thread about it

Thanks producerlawson I found the rear bulb coding in REM as you mentioned!
I will now look into the different options in REM.

Possibly I need to code for the Brake Light
BL_L
BL_R

and for the turn signal
FRA_L
FRA_R
