Ok i installed my hid fogs and i have this problem with my car im so anal about the little things so i was wondering is it Normal when you turn the fogs on for like 1 second you hear the speaker go pop like a little thump?
and it used to do it but when i put the fog in it also made the blue high beams and the back left light out signs turn on for like a quick half a second..
anything i need to worry i wouldnt want to void my warranty
well for my ProLumen kit, I got the new slim version ballasts and supposedly, they power up the bulbs slowly, as opposed to full power right from the start, soooooo I dun think I need anything :hmm:
I'm thinking it's normal, as everyone seems to be experiencing this...how long has everyone had HIDs in their fogs?
I've only had it for like a month tops...I wonder if it gets any worse, or goes away after long-term use? :hmm:
lol there's nothing wrong with it though...just get em'
they work perfectly fine and look sexy =D
we're just talking about how when you INITIALLY turn them on, some dash lights come on for a fraction of a split second (very very very very extremely short amount of time) as if something was up, but apparently everyone has this issue, and it's not a problem :hi:
The dash lights come on momentarily because HID lights require more power to start than to maintain. The car thinks the blulb is shorted until after it ignites.
:idea: iccccccc interesting. Thanks for sharing :hi:
