[QUOTE="bimmerholic, post: 586318, member: 16686"] No error. Absolutely clean when comes to Cluster Check Control. Initially when you first start, it will strobe alternately between the left and right CELIS in fast successions. Barely a second in between the succession. This lasts for approx 5 secs. After that, it will strobe once on each side every 20 secs or so. Why does it strobe in the first place? Simple... In actual fact, all your others bulbs (filament type) will undergo a cold check monitored by the LCM. What the LCM does is to check if any bulbs are blown every 20secs or so. But since they're Filament type, it will not be able to light up in a fraction of a second unlike LEDs (digital...think 1s & 0s....nothing in between), therefore you will not be able to see any flickering. However, when LCM does a cold check on the CELIS, it will flicker and of course, you can see it. [/QUOTE]
