I don't have experience with those, but, since they are LEDs you might need a resistor. To my knowledge, the computer thinks the bulbs are out because they are pulling so little power.

Yeah that's what I think also but why there difference in electrical power for Europe spec?
It works perfect in American specs.

Anyway I think that I have to get it to a specialist guy to do that cuz I am not that good in electrical aspect.
