    Hi guys I hope someone here can please help,
    I have a new 2021 renault master van lwb, 2.3 100,
    So I bought a led light to put on grill of van so I tried to connect it to the w5w parking lights,
    When I set it up everything was great for about 2weeks, I'd turn on lights and led would come on aswell, but then they starting turning off after awhile and when I turned off the engine and turn it back on the lights would come back on for awhile then knock back off, I'd hear a clicking sound when they came on and off but NOW nothing, my high and low beam, indicators,side lights, back lights brakes and license plate work but not the front small w5w bulbs,
    So I disconnected the led thinking it may come back but nothing,
    I've tried fuse under dash and under bonnet and all OK,
    Can someone please help as the van is fairly new and it's killing me inside

    I’d imagine there’s a computer controlled module handling the lights. Your LEDs have probably sent it haywire.
    There are correct ways of adding electrical accessories to new stuff. Hacking into the wiring isn’t it :)

    If you can undo what you’ve done, being it to a dealer and play dumb. If you’ve cut into the wiring that won’t work with them. Either way a main dealer is probably the best bet.
