SYLVANIA 12709 100-Watt 130-Volt A19 Household Bulb, 24 Pack 100A CVP 24PK


Hi,I did the following:
Can changing light bulbs cause the check engine malfunction light to come on?My check engine light came on when starting up my 2002 Benz E320 earlier and I changed the inside lights(city/parking) earlier in the day. I already replaced the original bulbs and had no problems(had them in for a couple of weeks) but I ordered some different bulbs from the same company and put them in and the check engine light came on hrs later.My car is ideling worse than before but can changing out bulbs in yo car cause an electrical problem that will trigger the check engine light to come on?Ive also changed out the taillight bulbs also(they have been in for a couple of weeks also)but Im just now having problems.The bulbs I replaced the stock bulbs w/are the same wattage and factory sized replacable bulbs ready to plug and play.Any advice would be greatly appreciated.Thanx.

Yes and No.

I own 2000 Audi A4 (also German) and if my tail lights are out then it can signal special diagnostics to notify me. In similar way if I use some of the newer LED tail lights (lower wattage - same brightness) it can make the computer think the light is out.

But in your case I don't think so. You say your car is idling worse so I would think that would be the related reason.

But you don't have to guess. Just take the car to AutoZone (or many of the national auto parts dealers) and they'll scan the code for you. Then either they can recommend a fix or you can come back here to ask again. Anything else (like guessing) will just cost you time and money.

If you plan to own your car for a while (or own more than few cars), then it is a great idea to get a ODB2 scanner. They can be bought at AutoZone or Sears as low as $ 50 on sale (or even cheaper online). Not only do they scan and read the code, they can reset them when if have the problem fixed / repaired.


Good Luck

The first thing to do is to take the car and get the error codes read. The lights may or may not be related. You could have an entriely different problem with the engine. That would explain the rough idle. good luck.
