Zapata Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Hello Team and pardon my ignorance. Will installing LED's bulbs for the tail/break lights and marker lights will disrupt the CAN Bus system? Thank you. Link to comment
AZgman Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Most likely. There are exceptions such as the excellent Dynamic Motorrad lights Link to comment
mrzoom Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Dynamic Motorrad are plug and play, others as has been said are not. Pricey but they are bright. Link to comment
dirtrider Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Hello Team and pardon my ignorance. Will installing LED's bulbs for the tail/break lights and marker lights will disrupt the CAN Bus system? Thank you. Afternoon Zapata NO, it can't & won't have any effect on the CanBus but it could very easily effect the bulb-out monitoring in your ZFE (chassis computer) or not properly work with the pulse width modulated tail/brake light system.

Zapata Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share Posted December 31, 2017 Hello Team: I installed the LED's bulbs for the Tail/Brake light and the difference is day & night. The LED's are super bright but as you guys mentioned now I have the warning light on + the rear bulb defective indicator on. I guess the change is worth it and the indicator "ON" is not big deal. I also replaced the parking light bulbs for blue LED's. Planning to put some blue LED's under the fairing in the near future. Will have to look into installing a fuse block. Link to comment
6speedTi Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Be careful if your going to install Blue and or Red lights on your bike. These colors are for law enforcement and emergency vehicles only. I'm almost certain it's illegal in all 50 states unless you live outside the USA. You might get pulled. Link to comment
Zapata Posted January 1, 2018 Author Share Posted January 1, 2018 I know. Only the parking lights are blue. Here in Texas, they are fine as far as they are not flashing or rotating (beacon). Link to comment
Pappy35 Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Tennessee recently passed a new motor vehicle law making it illegal, as in totally verboten, to install forward facing auxiliary/decorative lights of any color other than white or amber. There are a lot of cars that think that green headlights or purple headlight halos are cool looking. Zap, when you say 'parking lights' what are you referring to? Those two bulbs above the low beam?

6speedTi Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Has anyone tried a plug in LED decoder? Ebay has them. I'm thinking of getting this but I wonder if anyone tried one and what the results were. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F131243704967 Link to comment
