LED parking light strip does not illuminate
|
Saab 9-3 M08.
The new LED based parking light tube can sometimes become deactivated
by the front electrical centre (UEC). The very low current consumption of
the parking light is, under some conditions, below the limit the UEC detects
as an open/short circuit thus the UEC will deactivate the output until the
next time the car is started.
