Halogen to HID Errors

Shahaed · 06-18-2014, 05:57 AM

Okay guys, I can code now! Yay

The reason I am doing this is to reset errors on my headlights. So I've looked this up and searched the thread, but a lot of the links are broken etc.

I'm looking to get rid of theses errors. I know they are in the FRM module. I've turned off hot and cold low beam bulb check. Yet the errors proceed. Any help? Also I get the red car on a lift error (means something wrong with electronics) how do I get rid of that too? Is there a way with an error reset?

I did the whole conversion when I had a 328.

Error 1
This is coming up because the HID bulbs are set at 35W while the halogens are set at 50W. You can either code it out or get a ballast with an error cancelor built in, or just get error cancelors and connect them to the ballast. In my case I had ballast with the cancelors built in so I never got the error. Actually only time I did was when a bulb actually burnt out.

Error 2
Not 100% sure but it can mean a series of things. The first thing that comes to mind is that the car is due for some sort of an inspection.

The second error is from the conversion. It means electronic failure. Which modules do I need to code the errors out? And how do I reset all errors?
