Fitting led bulbs - problem with taillight/brake lights

I've fitted led bulbs to the interior (really recommend those) and also to the sidelight. At the back I've fitted led bulb to the number plate and the reversing light with good success. However the led bulbs doesn't seem to work with the taillight/brake light (same bulb) and the 3rd high level brake light. Either it's not working or its very dim. Any ideas?

You'll probably need to add a resistor ballast to each supply line to get them to work. Because of the low current draw the lighting module is sensing that the globe is blown. Probably also sending A DTC of open circuit or short. MY15
