England 2013 Freelander 2 SD4 HSE Lux Auto Aintree Green

All the LESs I bought came from fizzmo, fitted the interior lights and footwell lights with no problem there, tried LEDs in the puddle lights nothing. Now I know the bulbs work as I swap them over with the footwell lights but I didn't pursue it any further as I'm happy with just the interior lights and the standard puddle lights work okish. MY13 HSE LUX Aintree Green

I have the same probs on mine! You will find that once car doors are unlocked they will operate after 25 seconds! Once you turn the car off and open the door they are always on however. I have changed mine to the logo lights which also are the same ...


I found the same, open the door, remove the lamp, fit the new one, nothing, close the door, open it again, all working fine. p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior

Gents the opening and closing of the doors does not make a difference. What I am saying is that once you unlock the doors and wait approx 35 seconds and then open the door the lights will work. However if you unlock your car start straight away and then switch it off instantly and open the doors the puddle lights will work as there is still enough feed getting to the doors. Just say if this whole process took only 12 seconds the puddle lights will still work as the car has been started.

MY15 had same problem. used Osram LED's and had to use Canbus resistors on each puddle lamp due to Light Control Module thinking blown globe, ie reduced current and power.
Work perfectly now!

There you go. Canbus error module fitted under mirror cap very neatly, big improvement over incandescent globe!
