ok sorry but this noob found a way to screw this up. I hooked everything up just as it was written and everything works but with one problem. Whenever i try to turn my lights off they flash really fast but only when my car isnt in park or when the emergency brake isnt pulled. Any ideas on what i did wrong?
|
^ I'd give your wiring a second look, it sounds like something somewhere isn't quite right. Worst case you can just try it over again and start from scratch.
|
the wire running to the batter somehow came loose but all is well
It looked like i had strobe lights and everyone kept starrin at me while i was messin with them drivin down the road haha Thanks for the feedback |
you are wired just perfect, but u need to disable you drls. 100% positive here, mine did the same thing and i posted somewhere the hardwire wire to do it.
btw, the reason it doesn't do it when you start the car with e-brake on is because that disables the drl and autolights until you let the e-brake off. edit: found it http://www.aleromod.com/forums/showp...7&postcount=71 |
I had an issue with the lights flashing like strobes.....funny as hell...didn't notice it until I pulled up to a stop sign and saw the light...that is of course after I looked behind me...*cough cough*. Come to find out that the relay was bouncing back and forth...LOL. It would only do it when the temp outside was just about at freezing and below...weirdest thing..LOL
Goes to show you that anything crazy can happen! |
alrighty yall. did it! looks amazing. and no problems with strobes lol

lol. thanks for how to info guys

So if I read this right, all you do is switching your low beams to ground via the relay, if the highs are being turned on.
Am I right? or a total electrical noob? Thanks Julian |
no. what your doing is using a relay to supply 12v to the low beams. the highbeams power goes into the relay, which then trips the relay to allow 12v to go to the low beams
or something like that |

So I am right :) thanks. |
yep you are. there is a thread here for the exact wiring info also. makes it quick and painless.

OK so last night a buddy and i went and tryed to do this mod. my fogs suck ass, and im working on just taking them out now, so we just tryed to do this to the headlights. we cut the blue and pink wire on the passengers side and ran everything to the relay correctly, and what not.
so the problem was when we plug the headlights in the highs came on with out even turning the lights on. like i didnt even have the keys in the ignitiong and the highs light in the gauge cluster came on. Does anybody know what was going on? |
check your grounds and make sure the power wire isn't just going to the headlights. might have the relay connected wrong
|
Sounds like you tapped into a full time power wire instead of just the highbeam one. Check the wiring
|
ok, could it also be a bad relay? we checked the relay connection over and over. what if it got grounded in a place between the relay and the wires going to the headlight?
|
It could be a relay screwed up somehow on the inside but that would be. Rare I would think. Wouldn't hurt to plug in a diff one tho to check
|
I got some pictures coming here. i will edit this post as i get them online.
This is the ground here. i had it under a bolt right next to it in the quarter panel This is the fuse that i had under the bolt of the fuse holder thing And this is the passenger side headlight connector thing |
