Hi All,

I have a query regarding my petrol L322 4.4l which I’m looking for some help with please.
I have noticed that when you open a door, such as the front passenger door, you can see the other interior door lights, the ones that sit near the sills, flashing like they’re in a rave. It’s not a consistent flash, and appear to be some sort of connection issue. I’ve done a search on the forum and couldn’t see any similar problems. Perhaps I’ve missed it? Other lights aren’t flashing.

I also wondered is it standard for the side lights to flash on the RR when the lights are first switched on please?

Thank you

Has somebody put in LEDs as they do some funny stuff ?

Funny you should say that, they have indeed (sadly my example has been plastered in trinkets such as over finch wheels, crappy over finch badges , silly light bulbs and plastic chrome - I’m slowly ripping it all off ) - I came across a chip on the powerful (?) website which apparently stops the flashing ??

Replace the led bulbs with standard one and then go from there.

Sounds like somebody has painted it in super glue and ram raided Halfords !!

I think that it's an extra put in by the factory - my headlights flicker when I operate the rear wash/wipe.

Yep it went through Halfords backwards lol- there’s an electrical talent in the RR!

I had a lighting error on my dash for every light except the number plate when i put in led bulbs that went into meltdown, i could smell burning and tracked it down before they got carried away.

My side lights do the same when I switch the ignition on. They do a little dance for about 5 seconds. Been told this is common with aftermarket LED's I'm actually considering changing them back to standard bulbs.

Mine do, it’s onky the LCM checking for a blown bulb I believe , my number plate bulbs did as well even when the ignition was off and car locked , what I didn’t realise was they were doing the let’s catch fire dance
