Re: fucked up situation

dude, I would spend the $35 dollars in diag fee at the local Mitsubishi dealership and have them tell you whats going on. Electrical problems are no fun.

Re: fucked up situation

Did your OEM headlight plugs actually match up to the halos or did you have to rewire them? Because, I had to rewire mine cause there was no way they would ever work as they were. But, when I first wired them up, the bright lights were stuck on all the time. The reasoning was that the OEM and halos wires don't match up at all, I had to mix the wires to work properly.

Of course, I changed the wiring a bit after that so that my lows would stay on while my brights were on. It made them bright as day with some different bulbs too...

BTW, which halos do you have?

Re: fucked up situation

Hey I have the EXACt same HALOS as Black Crow. They looked sick at first, but now my passenger side halo is burnt out. I check all connections and did everything to make sure 100% that the Halo is burnt out...so does anyone know how to fix a burnt out halo, or is it gone for good??

THANKS

Theres an LED in the halos that you can replace, but I'm not sure how to take it out yet cause both mine still work. The one went out I thought, but I wiggled some wires and it came back on so I just have to fix a connection. I'm not sure where you can even find the proper LED bulbs for them though...

They're the hottest looking halos ever, IMO.

Theres gotta be a way to change em. I've heard of so many people having the halos burn out that I figure there has to be a way to change the LEDs... I donno though, maybe I'm just stupid. lol
