GP Thunder 8500K H3 for E92 Inner lights

tziegler03 · 10-01-2009, 12:48 PM

I bought and Installed the GP Thunder 8500K H3 for the inner driving lights and when the auto headlights come on or the car is put into reverse it throws an error! Any Ideas or suggestions? I also installed the GP Thunder 8500K H8 Angel Eyes and they seem to be just fine! Seems like when both inner lights come on it pulls to much voltage.

Did you get the correct wattage ... correct / proper one is 55w .. GP Thunder also has a 100w ones. If you got the latter, maybe that the wiring harness are already burnt and that could be the reason ?

What wattage setup did you go with?

55W They work and light up fine but it throws an error code on the dash.

That would be very odd indeed. Maybe take it out and put the stock back in to ensure none of the wiring is loose and if everything checks out then try to put the GP Thunder back in again.

Sorry, that's the best advice I can give.
