I too used the same bulbs as Gomer. No errors for several weeks, then all the time.

I recoded the light module for LED DRLs and the errors disappeared. Now the DRLs are also the side lights and stay on with the headlights.

Pics below. Second one is with the HIDs on. Notice the side marker in the lower bumper is not on, but the DRLs are.

This setup lasted about a week, then I started getting errors and the DRLS were switching off. Now I'm back to standard coding and I still get errors occassionally. I found that if I turn the headlights on for a few minutes, the error would clear. Weird.

Considering getting a set of non canbus LEDs and seeing if they'll work with the module coded for LEDs.
