Hi guy's,
Has anyone replaced their number plate bulbs with LED without issues?
I have replaced the internal entry/exit, sunvisor, boot and number plate bulbs with LED ones, all so far have worked fine apart from the number plate, these have an intermittent flickering both with ignition on and ignition off?
I replaced them with two more out of the packet and they still flicker.
This has been done for aesthetic reasons only and If found to be an issue I'll just replace the original bulbs.
Does anyone know if the QQ J11 electrical system does indeed have an issue with LED's? If anyone has used an LED that is not flickering, if permitted on the Forum please fire over the bulbs details.

Cheers mate,
Strangely I purchased the exact bulbs from EBay and the same seller as your first link, are the type in the second link also a direct swap for the number plate bulbs? If so I may give those a try.

Hi Squashy

I don't own my Qashqai anymore, but replaced my number plate bulbs with LEDS, bought from Ali Express. Never had any problems with them. I had a couple of spares which I have put on my new Juke, and again, no problems. I will have a look at my purchase history on Ali Express, and see if I can find the bulbs I bought, and let you know.

Cheers
Doug

Thanks Doug,
I've never used Aliexpress before but I believe that my Brother in law does.
Another Forum member has kindly offered to send a couple to try out. Looks like I may have the problem sorted with everyone's help 👍
