H3 Cornering Light Issue

dave1423 · 05-31-2012, 10:10 PM

My h8 + H3 Light went out on the passenger side a few days ago. I purchased both bulbs today and the H8 bulb works but the Cornering light wont come on!!! i switched the bulb to the opposite side and it works perfectly, checked the fuses and they are all fine too. after installing both new bulbs i got this exclamation sign coming on my dash everytime i start my car now.

Im not sure what else to do so I was wondering if anyone else ha had this issue or could has any advice.

Thanks

are they factory bulbs...sometimes different resistance will cause problems with your computer

Mods might want to move this into appropriate area

Also have you checked fuse?
