Daeos harness issue on uk 320d

Danno1975 · 02-28-2012, 12:49 PM

Hi all, newbie here but been lurking for a while.

I recently managed to get potentially the last Daeos harness on earth off of E92lighting.com and duly fitted it to my E91 on Sunday. All was well till yesterday when the sun came out and my auto lights went off and I got an exterior lamp out warning, The rings and other exterior lights were working and turning my lights on cured it. It came back sporadically today too and I was wondering it it was a faulty relay. However now my passenger angel eye is dead, not coming on at all even with xenons on

.

Anyone experienced this?, all the connections are good I tripled checked (very anal about this sort of thing).

Going to unplug it all and see if it works but it looks like a new angel eye unit might be needed so I'll test it with my old amber bulb, it's the Agro of fitting the angel eye bulbs that puts me off risking running the Daeos harness again without knowing what's wrong rather than the cost.

Any help welcome.

Just looked on this thread http://www.e90post.com/forums//showthread.php?t=184738 and noted *******s comment on the need for two relays, one or each ring. On my install being to a uk spec car the ecu is the other side of the car lhs so the harness was fitted to the lhs and to the reach the low beam signal wire I extended the signal wire lead to so it reached to the rhs (the signal wire is still there on my UK spec) however I didn't think to extend the halo ring wire to reach across with it to keep the signal and eye leads together off the same relay I just connected the nearest ring lead. Does this make sense?, and does anyone think it could be the cause ?.I'm a bit tired and had a terrible day. Commercial real estate sucks.

Strange I had a reply on here earlier an commented on it buys it's vanished?. Have I been moderated

.

Anyway the fault was mine looks like I have the rings connected to the wrong relays. I only extended the signal wire in the harness not the power wire, result one blown angel eye unit. On warranty tho so just a time issue, need to shorten driver power wire and lengthen passengers

.

Hoping for dry weather this weekend.

Detailing a Range Rover on Saturday and then planning to do this Sunday after I take the kids swimming.

All refitted today with a new angel eye unit, I corrected the mistake on the wiring and ran the harness to the correct relays, no issues at all. Looks very cool.

Also replaced the brake sensor cables the idiot who fitted my new pads broke giving me some nice warnings, I only bunged him so can't complain,p even with an afternoon wasted I've saved a fortune on BMW prices.
Earns the lesson on non eom parts though, the German Swedish French cables I'd got off of eBay were really flimsy.
