parking light failure message

Hi all,

I replaced the factory yellow parking light bulb with the 6000k white LED parker lights, followed the steps on the user manual, the lights are working perfectly but I constantly get the message "parking light failure". I'm sure the voltage is correct, what could be the problem?

Here's the light bulb I purchased:

If the LED bulbs don't provide the same resistance it's possible that's what's causing it to throw an error.

The leds use less voltage so when the car does the test to check if your bulb is burnt it will show the error. You need to code it to turn the monitoring off and the bulb type to led
