HID flickering AE-Coding issue?

Meshyo · 12-20-2011, 07:31 AM

Hey guys,

I have done a few searches but often the threads tangent. Can I just confirm that coding will not sort the issue of flickering HID's on angel eyes? Mine flicker when they dim to side/parking lights. On DRL they work fine and throw up no errors. It is a canbus kit that take power directly from the existing socket. only real alternative a relay kit?

Also is there such a thing where DRL can either be kept on when side/parking lights would be on (i.e when main headlights are on)?

Appriciated.

You need to disable the dimming. Go to the cosmetic and lighting section. There is a DIY gide for HID angel eyes. I think it's still on the first page.
