Ouch.

Thanks for the warning.

How does this happen, do you know?

£305 for an ECU replacement seems reasonable. Or was it just the fuse that was replaced?

No i dont know but the dealer told me its not a instant failure but over time it builds up and up until the fuse blows,its up to you but i will not be putting them back in

Wow!!! Thanks for the warning.

Just out of curiosity what bulbs did you replace with LEDs? I am only looking at the interior ones and can’t see how that would interfere with the ECU, but then I’m not an engineer

Hi i changed all interior bulbs plus puddle lights i have the bulbs here if you want them email me your address and ill post them to you foc

Hi guys im not trying to mislead you in any way but im just passing on to you what i was told at the dealers yesterday,first let me clear up somethings,the bulbs blew the ECU main fuse and the 10amp fuse which runs the interior lights plus the remote control of the car.I am as shocked as you are how this could even happen but it did.Before i took my car to the dealers i asked my cousin to take a look and see if he knew what was wrong( by the way he is a gold tech with Vauxhall which includes wiring ) as he was the person who fitted the LED bulbs for me .the bulbs came from Precision LED in the USA.  The dealer changed all 11 bulbs back to oe spec replaced the fuses and the cars going good no problems,the dealer said that they had never seen anything like this before,I have the printout from the dealer if any one wants to see it .

Hi Jason,I am just home from my local Lexus dealers £305 less because of LED bulbs,I got a full set from the USA and was told they work with my lexus. I fitted them in March and they caused the ECU fuse to blow yesterday. the dealer told me that the LED bulbs  work but ,WILL cause the ECU to fail after some time, be very careful.
