So this seems to be a common issue, but I've tried every solution I could find so far..
I upgraded to led bulbs, initially one bulb was spazzing out before turning off, figured it was faulty got a new set of bulbs and it worked just fine after that... a couple months ago one of my led low beams exploded? Idk, the diodes on one side of it were no longer attached suddenly... so I bought new bulbs, and after a few minutes one of them turns off, then on, then off, then on, then off and stays off... on the off chance it was a bulb, I got another set... and now I have what appears to be 8 perfectly functioning bulbs, but depending on which bulbs in which assembly the results vary wildly from driver flashing out in 3 seconds passenger staying on, to driver staying on passenger flashing out after 3 seconds, to both working for 5 minutes before shutting off...
As per suggested elsewhere I have taken it to a dealer, they found no issue and blame the bulbs(they also refute alfaobd even exists)... I have tried resistors, capacitors, and canbus adapters... I have purchased alphaobd and the mx unit and changed all of the settings to led yes... I have replaced the oem harnesses... I have tested the bulbs... I have absolutely no idea what to do now...
Issue is only with the low beam, high fog etc all work fine... Any suggestions greatly welcome...
