One of my front parking lights burned out on HUNKA and I replaced it with an LED. As expected the bulb warning still comes on. Who can reprogram for LED lights?

Did you ever figure this out? All I can find to correct it is to add a load resistor to the circuit. The LED bulbs draw far less power and the system cant detect the LED bulb. Not really interested in cutting up my wiring harness just to upgrade to LED....

Nope, I still have the warning light. I also talked to the dealer, but they say I'm SOL also. Options are, revert to the dimmer bulbs, add a load resistor, or live with the warning light.

So far we are living with the warning lights.
