Turn signal lamp LED replacement

I have changed turn signal bulbs as follows,

1st trial
BAU15S PY21W 1156PY CREE LED Bulbs for front
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2pcs-...444_5,201409_2

BA15S S25 P21W CREE LED Bulbs for rear
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2-x-O...444_5,201409_2

Compare with original bulb



2nd replacement ----- 6pcs 3rows + 3pcs on top total 21pcs
For front
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2-X-W...025926808.html

For rear
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2PC-A...284446908.html

Compare with 1st LED

I think this is the best LED bulb for BMW F30 turn signal.


Cording change
FEM_BODY→FRA_V_(L/R)_KALTUEBERWACHUNG
FEM_BODY→FRA_V_(L/R)_WARMTUEBERWACHUNG
aktiv → nicht_aktiv
FEM_BODY→FRA_V_(L/R)_IS_LED
nicht_aktiv → aktiv
 
REM→FRA_H_(L/R)_KALTUEBERWACHUNG
REM→FRA_H_(L/R)_WARMTUEBERWACHUNG
aktiv → nicht_aktiv
REF01(REM)→FRA_H_(L/R)_IS_LED
nicht_aktiv → aktiv

Take a look at the bulbs from HorizonLEDs. I've upgrade my front and rear indicators and brake light. Very happy.

Do they send out an "lighting error" when you start your vehicle with those LEDs?

Try coding these in REM:

RFS_L_KALTUEBERWACHNUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
RFS_L_WARMUEBERWACHNUNG from aktiv to nicht_aktiv
RFS_L_IS_LED to aktiv

Same above three, but prefix is RFS_R, rather than RFS_L

Hope that helps

For reverse lights, you can use the PN/coding I have in this thread - it's in there somewhere.
