LED bulbs still flicker after coding

So recently my brake LED bulbs that I fitted (months ago) have started flickering, yet to my knowledge all of the cold and warm checks are coded off, including coding on the LED module (see image below) all inside of REM.



Is there anything I'm missing?

Already are, that's my problem I recently read up though that all of those codes are only for the indicators, is that correct? If so then that would totally explain why they're doing it.. maybe there's a different map to code for the brake lights?

Horizon LED's, I had a horrible experience getting delayed items and refunds from them though, so I wouldn't recommend them.

I assume FRA is the wrong coding.
FRA stands for "Fahrt Richtungs Anzeige" (Turn Signal)
I belief you need to code the "BL" and possibly the "BLD" as with this thread

My appologies!

That's true, it's for your blinkers what you are doing.

Search for BL like mentioned.

Was at work and didn't pay that much attention!

Thanks, I came across this after searching really irrelevant stuff on Google eventually
