Hmm, so I just attempted this. Didnt work :/ I had strobe lights for lows too. My DRL's were already disabled and I even pulled the DRL relay and it still strobed. Anybody got any ideas??
Right now Im thinking it's a bad ground. All I did was use the strut tower bold thing (Idk what it's called) and scraped off a little paint so it could ground to the body. Whats another good ground I can easily get too? |
The ground the thread started used is pretty good. And using the dome bolts is not a good idea, cause a lot of rubber, insulation and material is mix down there.
Just bolt in the fender wall. And check your connections. Perhaps its just a bad crimp shoe. |

I think im just going to ground to the batt for testing purposes. Is that ok? And Ive double and triple checked my wiring, it's all good. |

Some thing else- the whole thing merely taps in the light wires of the headlight there is no need to cut them at all. |
The only thing I have done before this is disable the DRLs. Everything else is stock. And I hooked up my relay exactly as that diagram shows. And when I said I pulled a relay, I was referring to the DRL relay because my low beams were flashing like strobe lights.

Yep, it was a bad ground. Got a proper ground and now it works flawlessly.

Glad you got it fixed.

Thanks. It's a huge improvement, even with crappy regular halogen bulbs. Im going to order some 55W HIDs to match my low beams shortly :D Also, it's ok to put a switch in on the 12V wire correct? I already did and it seems to be working ok, but I just wanted to make sure it's not going to hurt anything. |

I just did this mod on my 01. I did everything on the driver side headlight. Used the blue wire right by the pink wire. It worked fine till i stated the car. I got the strobe lights which looks pretty cool to see all 6 lights flashing.
The fix was to pull the DRL relay and cut pin 87. (I wish i knew about this easy was for my 01 grand am) On my car the DRLs are the brights. Also with the 99-00 it might have a different wiring system like the 99-00 grand am. Anyways money shot |
headlights

but want them to turn off when i turn them to dims and have just dims thanks for any help |
