Hey everyone,

So I ordered some led blinker bulbs for the headlights. I hate the fade in/out look of the standard halogen blinkers that come with the car. I couldn't find a decent py24w amber led so I took a gamble at ordering an set off of ebay. Looks like most people are complaining about one of the bulbs dying or prematurely becoming dimmer then the other. I'm fairly familiar with leds so I was thinking it has something to do with the voltage overheating the controller circuit inside.

Anyways, does anyone know how to turn down the voltage (brightness) of the blinkers. I'm thinking its somewhere in 3062 or 3063 of the FEM but I don't know which abbreviation I'm looking for lol.

Thanks in advance

P.S. I'm aware I gotta code led aktiv and remove the checks

3063 MAPPING_SIDEMARKER_L_PWM_LEVEL_1
Look in that option and change the PWM voltage to reduce or increase brightness. Normally the other PWM levels are set to pwm_1. The only thing you should change is the voltage of pwm level 1 and check if brightness changes.

Just what I was looking for. Thanks appreciate it.

I took a look in 3063 but no such option exists. Just pen level 4 and 5. Could pwm 1 be located somewhere else or is there a different way of coding the brightness of the front blinkers?

It supposed to be there, can you check 3062. Can you send the cafd file for the fem to check

Attached the FEM cafd but I had to zip it for the upload. I did a little bit of digging myself and came across MAPPING_BLINKEN_V_L_PWM_LEVEL_1 in 3062 and MAPPING_BLINKEN_V_R_PWM_LEVEL_1 in 3063. If the v in the code stands for vorne then I think that's the code I'm looking for but I'm not too sure about the German abbreviations.

You could try inject the cafd file from your psdzdata and see if the option comes up in the new cafd file

I've already got a new cafd. I injected a new one about 3 weeks ago when I vo coded oem led fog lights. The old one didn't have a pwm 1 option neither does the new one. I'm wondering if its another option I should be looking for.

This Cafd version 14_40_152 does not contain the option of MAPPING_SIDEMARKER_L_PWM_LEVEL_1, i have checked with my psdzdata. This option is related to brightness of the side marker and not the blinkers.
You could code MAPPING_BLINKEN_V_R_PWM_LEVEL_1 and MAPPING_BLINKEN_V_L_PWM_LEVEL_1 since this seems to indicate front right and left blinkers.

I was starting to think it would be MAPPING_BLINKEN_V_R_PWM_LEVEL_1 and MAPPING_BLINKEN_V_L_PWM_LEVEL_1 based on what the "v" translates to. I find it kind of weird that one is in 3062 and the other in 3063. None the less I should have the leds delivered within a day or two now so I'll code it and reply with how it went. Thanks for the help.
