Flickering Halo headlight fix?

[magnumrs]

Does anyone know how to check or fix/repair a halo light that only half lights and the other hlaf flickers or doesn't light at all? I have the Euros on a 1995 Civic DX. I don't have the paperwork on the lights ..... any suggestions or help?

did you get them cheaply off ebay? if so, that is your problem
but you could pop them in the oven for like a couple minutes and pull them apart, you maight have to do this is spades like pull a little bit, cook it, pull more aprt, cook it, open it up, tighten anything up, make sure wires are firmly connected and such, a soldering iron will help dont forget to reapply some sealant when your done

Thanks! You're a real help. I was hoping on this site (as a newbie) that some ppl out there may really want to help out with a legit answer to a posed question. I'm not looking for a comedian's reponse. Next time - just don't respond to any of my questions - thanks.

You bought a cheap knock off of a product that is not avaiable for your car for a reason. See if you can open up the housing. I am willing to bed something isnt connected right. YOu could always put your better looking stock headlights back in so your car not only looks better but doesnt have some ghetto retarded looking half assed lights on.

I agree with brokenlimits sure ebay is a good spot for stuff but if you want quality stuff go to a parts dealyer or something like that

my halos on my crx has almosted stopped working. at first the pass. side low beam light went out, then the halo stopped working, then the high beam stopped working. now the drivers side low beam will go out some times (theres a short in the wire). yes i got them cheaply off ebay. *ugh*

i am in need of some new good headlights. i kind of want the angle eyes again or either projectors. whats a good place to get some quality headlights at? (88 crx)

If they are flickering, it's most likely because you wired them up too loosely. Check your wire connections with the halo's turned on, wiggle the wire around, and see if they flicker. If so, reconnect them.

Hey Richocet I saw you driving down Kenny like a week or so ago...

I wasnt in my Si otherwise I would have signaled you. I was in a Red EX (the girlfriends)

I think it was you anyway...

I live off Sawmill and Bethel so it was probably me. You should check out www.columbusracing.com sometime to get in with the local crowd. This Saturday we're taking a 20-30 car cruise down the Chillicothe and back, food on the way and stuff. It's fun hanging out on a local board with a huge variety of cars ranging from oldschool musclecars, Lotus's, 600hp rx7's and ~400hp Civics.
