Front Turn Signal Error caused by LED and still throws error after returning original

I bought a pair of LED turn signal for my 2011 e90 from ebay. I just wanted to get rid of the orange bleeding color off the reflectors.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PY24W...item43a7689411

The seller is willing to replace it or refund my money.

The bad part is after I returned the original bulbs. It still throws an error. I checked the pins & it's still intact.

Anyone here experienced this same problem?

I wanted to take it to the dealership but what if they found out that I'm trying to replace the bulb? Will they void my warranty on my headlights?

Yes, I experienced something similar. I bought the DEPO LED blackline taillights. Both worked fine for a few hours. The pass side is still fine, but the driver's side turn signal began to malfunction and upon returning the stock taillight I get the same result. I replaced the stock taillights and am taking my car in for svc tomorrow. I'll update after that.
