Thread: Trailer dash indicator

If you've got a bull bar fitted that has indicators on it then it's normal.

Yeah I do, Thanks!!
Anyone know if it'd disappear from the dash with led lights in the bar??

Yes it will (or at least it did on my old Disco and Defender - I've not done it on my current D2).

However, if you also replace the regular indicators with LEDs you will get the rapid flashing as the ECU will think a globe is out because of the low current draw.

Most replacement LED kits come with a new flasher can to replace the original which fixes the rapid flash issue :-)

There is no "flasher can" on a d2 , resistors are needed if you wanted to replace all the lights with LEDs , and yep just replacing the bull bar lights with led will stop the trailer dash indicator

Alternatively leave it, when the trailer light doesn't flash you'll know you have a globe not working

It did on mine.

Will the leds that are just a bulb replacement work or do I need to change the whole light??
