I have a warning message to check the right indicator light in my 2019 Holden Commodore ZB. The right indicator light is flashing fast on the dash and the actual unit. All lights are working. I changed the headlamp and that fixed it for three weeks, but it is now fast flashing again. The indicator is an LED strip that is an enclosed unit.

13 Jun 2025Many mechanics at this point would put their money on a bad earth somewhere on the car. Even though the LED light is working, the car’s computer thinks otherwise and, since LEDs draw so little current in the first place, they can be a bit hard to diagnose. Even so, the fast flashing suggests that there’s definitely a problem. To be honest, an auto electrician is probably your best bet at this stage.
Some owners of older cars have found that switching to LED headlight globes can cause the car to think that there’s a blown light somewhere as the current being drawn by the LEDs is so small compared with the normal globes the car came with. Fundamentally, the computer can’t see the current that should be being drawn when the lights are on, and fires the check-light warning symbol. You may find it’s the LED indicator light unit itself that is faulty. These can develop random failures in the internal circuitry that controls them.
The first thing to do, though, is to try the home computer reset which involves disconnecting the battery overnight and seeing if that calms the computer’s nerves. It might not work, but it’s free to try.
