Common DIY Errors When Installing LED Bulbs

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Warning light – error code

Video tutorial

This video illustrates the major errors that can occur when installing LED bulbs yourself: placing the kit on top of the heatsink caused the fan to melt from the heat. Result: a costly 'avatar' kit to throw away.

Alternatively, to save space, a delicate cable was zip-tied, which broke on both sides due to heat inside the headlamp. In another case, an LED, handled too roughly, became unsoldered, making it inoperable.

Yet another case: the cable did not fit into its housing and was cut to zip-tie it like a regular electrical cable, but these are shielded cables, and without their shielding, they no longer function. Lastly, an LED was filed down on one side because it was too large (when a smaller version existed), altering the mechanical structure of the fins that dissipate heat.

Installations must be done correctly, and devices MUST NOT be modified in any way.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
