question about lighting....HELP!!!!!!

sosomatt · 01-22-2006, 12:59 AM

First off i just installed 6000k p46's from umnitza....i like the look but i cant seem to aim the projectors or the high beams to where i want it....We try both knobs but its not moving the beam on either!! Thats one problem that can hopefully be resolved...My other problem is that i installed smoked corners with stealth auto bulbs and now when i get in the car it doesnt register any bulbs as being out, but when i put on my turn signal it blinks regular for a sec, then it immediately switches to FAST blinking. As its blinking fast the computer shows a bulb out in the front and when i turn the signal off, the computer says nothings out. I get out to see if the bulb is out, but neither are out and both work! This is freaking me out. Is there any explination for this?????

I posted in your other thread too. I think the problem might be with the bulb harness within your smoked corners. I'm guessing that the smoked corners are not OEM. It's possible that the harness is faulty. You can try replacing the new harnesses with your OEM ones to see if that solves the problem.
