It measures differences in resistance. Two bulbs can work, but if one is older or a different brand with different resistance, the bulb warning may go off.

If the problem is a warning about the lights, there are a few possibilities...
- The Bulb Check unit operates by comparing current draw of pairs of bulbs. This means that if the bulbs are different types; or if there is corrosion in the socket of one or more; or if the ground connections are bad; or if the power connections are bad, then you can get a bulb warning.
- The Bulb Check Unit checks some that you might not think of, such as the license plate lamps and the side marker lamps.
- The Bulb Check Unit has been known to fail.

Hallo,
Schlußlicht are the two redlights in the rear then light is on.
Bremslicht is brakelight.
Begrenzungslicht is the first position of the lightswitch
Abblendlicht is low beam
Fernlicht is high beam
Nebelscheinwerfer is foglight
Alles klar?
Grüsse aus Germany
