Cold/Warm bulb check ncs expert code

I have replaced my exterior bulbs with canbus LEDs, all work fine except the rear turn signals give a bulb out error. I would like to disable the check for these bulbs but do not know which line of code they are.

Are they "kaltue/warmue_bl_..." or "kaltue/warmue_blm..." or some other one?

I would just like to try and figure out which one for sure before I go code.

I know I will still probably have hyperflashing, I just want to disable the bulb out warnings. The hyperflashing doesnt look that bad with LEDs and I can live with it. But the bulb out warning is getting a bit annoying.

Thanks

2008 R56S

Check out this thread. It's on the Countryman forums, but the coding is the same:

You will still get flashes at startup and occasionally while driving, but at least you won't get the warnings.

Thanks, searched through that thread and it appears that the blinkers are "KALTUE/WARMUE_RFS..."

You should not get flashes at startup or while driving if you disable both the warm and cold checks. At least I have not on my car and another members car.

BTW, there is a "translations.csv" file in the NCS Expert install files that has all the translations for all the settings.

I did on my CM, just on the front turn signals while starting up my car. I've been told by friends that my brake lights would occasionally blink a couple times while driving as well.

+1 with a difference:

You should not get flashes at startup or while driving if you disable cold checks.
My car was a flashes show with the cold check enabled.
If you disable cold check and there is flashes, then, you have bad quality LED bulbs (install REAL canbus LEDs).

Warm Checks will help you to know when the LED is burn.
I do not recommend coding for disable warm bulb checks.
