Have just changed to led for rear indicators without any problem on my 98 V70 R. On replacing the stop lights with led this brings on the blown bulb warning light on the dash, however if only one led bulb is in place with standard, no dash warning shows.
Any ideas on a remedy please?

a bit crude i know but i fixed an extra bulb in line and hid it behind the tailgate trim panel................make sure it doesn't touch anything..............probably just needs a resistor or something but i'm not electrically minded

Try CANBUS friendly LEDs, these have a resistor fitted in-line, so won't activate the blown lamp warning. FleaBay are awash with them! ;)
