Ok, Follow these steps.

1. remove tails from car. completely.
2. remove bulbs from tails.
3. look into hole where bulb socket goes.
4. you will see burn spots on metal contacts

Thanks, I found that and will work on it after I figure out what is going on with the invisible to me suspension issue I stumbled upon.

The error refers to that and I'd like to know if it is a fantom or real and to clear it.

Thanks

BTW this seems to be a great write up on teh lights:

Um, that LCM error, is the up down motion of your lights. Head Lights.

And DIS, always seems to screw that up. Even when you do all the guided tests, and everything is fine, it still gives me an LCM error. I think it has something to do with the firmware in the cluster and/or the LCM. I think I made a thread on that at one point.

That is why Term was asking you if you have xenons and air susp.

I got it working on another computer and it shows no suspension errors. It did say the right brake light is the fault so I am moving on from suspension (whew) to the passenger tail.

Thanks!

Before the last response I got it working in another laptop.

The radio is hacked to allow my Appradio3 to run so that is not a concern.

The height is supposed to be 721mm, it is 723.9 so I was worried.

What about the rest?
