How did you "delete the rear fog light" from your led tails?

I have/had a similar error message. 3 weeks after installing them and having no error messages ... I pulled to activate the rear fog light and got the rear fog light bulb error message. I have been in contact with Frank many times since then and he is going to send me some replacement lights later since they are back ordered right now. I tried with resistors and without and the error message is still there for the rear fog light.
So, If you have a work around to bypass that error message i would love to know it..
Thanks!

btw... other then this small issue I am dealing with, I LOVE these lights and I can not express what a nice difference they make to updating the rear end.

 

IIRC, there was a thread on Rennlist stating that Dectane halted the R&D on their LED DRL, as another manufacturer has already done it.

 

Carrera997re's taillights are Rottec's derivative, so they're not Dectane. In Rottec's version, I believe you have to remove the foglight bulb in order to not have the error msg. This was related to their earlier version. This has since been corrected.

 

Anyone else have this problem? They been on the car for 3 weeks with about 1 hour of actual use. Contacted Frank... still no response.

 

Yea i had to remove the rear fog light so i dont have that error msg. Basicly pull the bulb out mine are not dectane i believe there almost the same as rottec. So i pluged the light back into the housing without a bulb. So now i dont have a rear foglight sux cause i always drove with it on. But ill loose the rear foglight for the LED tAils.

 

That's a first time I believe we hear of LED being out on the Dectane lights. Hopefully this is not a trend starting and you will get a replacement.

 

hi guys...

did anyone contact Frank from orange tuning lately.... I've been sending him emails to place another order for the dectane lights,but he is not replying back ..... ....

 

No I haven't but was planning to order my set. He told me a few weeks ago that the lights are on back order and wouldn't be available until the end of this month.

 

Didnt frank run into some problems with these lights? For selling them cheaper then other companys or somthing like that. Thought few pages back this was discused. I could be wrong though

 

Only problem I recall is that his aggressive pricing created a volume surge for him and temporary stock outs.

 

I got response from Frank this past Saturday 9/17 that the lights will be back in stock today 9/19 or tomorrow the latest...

 

True that

 

Went for a drive tonight and found that 2 additional LEDs have gone bad. (3 in total) Sent a second e-mail to Frank... Still NO response!!! Anyone make any contact in the last few days?

 

oO man .. thats bad ...

i have contacted frank yesterday to place a new order and he replied back ... so i guess he is there...

try this email address : info@orange-tuning.de

he told me that they received new shipment of the lights 2day... so i think you can ask for a replacement with new one's

 

I just emailed Frank at the above address and he replied back within 5 minutes.
