Flickering on angel lights

jalcantar2010 · 01-02-2012, 12:00 PM

I installed my 7k angel lights on my xenon headlights. If I have the light switch on 12 o\'clock which is off they flicker .. I have to have on 11 o\'clock which is auto.. Also, they don\'t flicker if I turn the switch to 1 o\'clock which just lights up the ring.. Note : I do not get an error code

If they are LED it's because of the bulb check system.

If you have HIDs, it's because of the PWM signal. You need to either code your car and raise the duty cycle to 100%, wire them directly to a 12v source and have them triggered by the existing wiring with a Bosch relay, or build a PWM filter.
