    I'd tend to agree Jamo, for what it's worth the ballast resistance should prevent any spurious failed bulb warnings if used in the indicators, and you're not likely to worry about power savings on indicators as they are not permanently switched on.

    Are they just covering their *** with the message about failed LED units? I assumed that the LEDs would be a lot more reliable.

      I didn't explain myself clearly just re-read my post, you can use LED brake lights without the ballast but if you use the indicators you need the ballasts or buy the relay if you replace all 6

      My LED sidelights work fine with no problems.

        I have fitted them, Autocheck doesn't sound when the ignition is turned on and brakes pressed but does sound (once only) when I turn them on. I have some resistors to try and I'll post again when I know which ones work and how/where to fit them.
