Yep I did... Only because I didn't push the purple lock tab back after fitting the crimps. The tab stopped the connector being pushed fully into the light.

ah ok, will check it out
How did you get on with the coding?
Is this any help ----> Oem T6 Led Rear Lights With Sequential Led Indicator "retrofit"
What was the coding? I’ve got a bulb error light on my dash, and I’m not sure if it’s the LED tail lamps or the LED numberplate lights.

Just remember that description for these is the other way around, active should actually read inactive.
Since fitting VW T6 LED tail lamps with standard bulbs on reversing and indicators I have been getting a bulb out dash warning when the light switch is in Auto or I switch to Side Lights during the day. This is without activating reverse, indicators or brakes.
I definitely don’t have a bulb out and all lights are working as they should. There is no visible wire damage and all connections are good, made with new pins, crimped and soldered.
I have THQ V2 head lamps with the adaptive looms that have worked without fault.
The dash fault lamp resets with a key switch reset and is not detected by Carista.
I see forum content mentioning fitting resistors to the indicator loom but I don’t have any issue with indicators double flashing.
I saw a thread the other day mentioning that internal lights and side lights are linked, I have all LED internal lights so I’m wondering if this may have some influence on the matter??
Has anybody else seen this and any ideas how to resolve?
I don’t want to code out the bulb failure warning as it’s a useful feature.

T6 LED headlight retrofit?
All parts for my retrofit are now ordered with the exception of the plug and play looms. Other than the looms (to keep the install as simple as possible), I am using all used/second hand parts sourced from eBay to keep costs as low as possible. I won't get the warranty on parts that I would...

‘Light Out’ warning on after tailgate conversion.
I've converted my barn doors to a tailgate with LED lights. But I have a orange warning for bulb out on the instruments. VCDS scan showed no fault codes. If I go into 17-Instruments and go into measured values, what should I be looking for? The only concern I've found is "Status on input...

I read the second post regarding tail lights, I haven’t done a barn door to tailgate conversion and I don’t have a tow bar.
I have simply replaced the standard non LED tail lights for standard VW tail lights and that was to be plug and play as far as I was concerned with no coding, just the cross connection for Reversing and Fog.
I have fitted LED reversing bulbs but have eliminated this by fitting the standard bulbs back and the problem remains.
Carista doesn’t show a fault and the dash warning clears after driving for a while.
Is this quote from @mmi relevant?
If coding is required will it disable the tail light bulb failure detection?
No I’ve checked every function and all working.
This code sorted mine out. Whethwr it coded the tailgate LED numberplate lights or the OEM LED tail lamps, I don’t know.
But the error light that would appear once the sidelights or headlights were switched on has now gone.
Good luck.

Guys I can't stop doing this. I am still managing to keep myself happy as I come up with a new idea almost every week. Have a look below and judge yourselves.
