Problem with the reverse light indicator in a Seat Ibiza
(Translated from Spanish)
Summary of the thread
A 2018 Seat Ibiza owner installed an LED light, leading to a reverse light warning indicator issue. The problem may stem from the LED bulb's incompatibility with the car's electrical system, possibly requiring a CANbus-compatible LED. Installing a resistor to mimic the original bulb's resistance is suggested as a potential solution.

Check if the LED bulb is compatible with your car's electrical system. Some vehicles require a CANbus-compatible LED to prevent warning lights. If not, you might need to install a resistor to mimic the original bulb's resistance. Let me know if this helps or if you have any further questions!
It helped me, but I'd like to know if I can clear the warning light with a Carly code reader.

Yes, you can use a Carly code reader to clear the warning light. However, if the issue persists, it might indicate that the LED bulb is still not compatible or that a resistor is needed. After clearing the code, monitor if the warning light returns. Let me know if you need further assistance!
