When you change the foglight on your RSX, be careful not touch the glass part of the bulb with your fingers which causes the bulb to burn out earlier. Hans Angermeier has produced over , videos showing drivers how to fix things on their cars. He has broad expertise on basic repair procedures covering the majority of cars on the road. If you are leaking oil and parking on your oil spots each night, the oil is breaking down your tires' rubber.
Car companies often use the same engines in different cars. They also slightly alter the styling and sell the same car by two different names amongst other tricks to help offset development costs. Our system selects the most applicable video for your car based, in part, on these characteristics. The video displayed may not look exactly like your car, but may be relevant enough for you to get a good idea how to do it. Getting Started - Prepare for the repair. Car Displayed: Acura TL 3.
Consider a premium bulb like the Silverstar Ultra with a specially designed filament, proprietary gas mixture and lamp coating for the best downroad lighting.
Thread starter Bizzyb Start date Dec 19, Bizzyb B18C1 lover. So took people's advice and got some of the more important stuff on my to get list, fog lights and HID's. Install was a breeze except the fact that it was 17 degrees here in Naperville today and I did this in my garage. Here's some pics, will do a proper picture whore and update my other thread in a couple days when it's warmer.
Havok New Member. Those fogs are down with the sickness. Looks good man! BeatBox Real Good! Most likely, the GRN wire will not reach the ignition switch.
I attached a 1 foot patch wire onto the end of the GRN wire, then crimped a male quick disconnect onto the attached patch wire. This is the Ignition wire. It becomes active when the ignition is turn to the II position. Once the connections are completed, simply putting your key to the II position will activate the DRLs. Whichever method you used to tap the patch wire into the ignition wire, make sure no metal terminals are exposed as you may inadvertently cause a short and blow a fuse.
Tape up any exposed terminals especially if the male disconnect is not insulated and set the patch wire aside. To activate the high beams under normal high beam mode or flash-to-pass mode, we need to send an electrical current to the relays that will cause it to draw full power from the battery when the combination switch is set in either high beam or flash-to-pass. What I did instead, for a clean install, was ordered a set of pre-assembled male connectors from eBay.
You only need to make use of one dummy high beam male connector. Then I plugged the left OEM high beam connector into the dummy socket to check the position and identify the polarity of the wires:. I then attached a 1. I attached a 1. AR stands for Automotive Relay. Depending on where you mount the relay, you may want to shorten the Hamsar DRL relay wires for a clean connection. Connect the fork terminal connect end of the 15A inline fuse holder to the positive terminal of the battery.
Then take the male quick disconnect end of the 15A inline fuse holder and connect it to one female end of the patch wire labeled 87 AR. Take the remaining end of the patch wire labeled 87 AR and connect it to pin 87 of the automotive relay. Take the ring terminal and connect it to the positive terminal of the battery. The finalized interconnectivity of wires between the high beam connectors, automotive relay and Hamsar DRL relay should appear similar to this:.
Now if you operate the high beams or engage in flash-to-pass mode, pin 86 of the automotive relay becomes energized and the circuit between pin 30 and pin 87 of the automotive relay is bridged and the DRL unit is grounded powered off. Make sure all the ground terminal connects are properly grounded to a metallic surface on the vehicle chassis 3 wires.
Make sure all power terminal are properly connected to the positive terminal of the battery 2 wires. Ensure that the light combination switch works properly with the car OFF. Test the high beam, low beam and flash to pass switches to ensure proper operation. Turn it to the II position and step out of your car to look at your headlights.
Now turn off your high beams but allow your low beams to remain on. You may need an assistant to confirm this. If you have loose wires, you may want to tie them up and organize them using zip ties. Make sure both fuses 10a and 15a are easily accessible in the event that you need to replace them. What I did was take a insulated wire loom and tuck the exposed wire from the mod into it, then zip tie the wire loom onto the vehicle chassis when needed:. Or two, your automotive relay is poor quality.
Lastly, check your ground and the fuses. Home RSS Twit. Home Base Model Type-S. Hid Installation I also included how I installed these with out using X clips. Opening the box I ordered 3 sets.
