Conflict fog lamps of incandescent lighting with some CAN bus systems

We do get one contacted by customers with the problem that the fog lights of the bulb lights on the Van 'n Bike carrier system go out after a few seconds.

Why is that?

The cause is not the incandescent lighting but rather the lighting module or CAN bus system that was installed in the RV.

The bulb light set on the Van 'n Bike carrier system includes 2 fog lights. 

Some modules will not recognize this because there is more current drain.

The fog lights will turn off after a few seconds.

The lighting modules offered by Van 'n Bike are equipped for this and do not have that problem.

How to solve?

You can quickly fix this problem by removing the bulb from the right fog light.
