Anyone with interference since fitting HIDS?

[Trublu07]

Sorry. WhaT number 4 as my one looks different to that pic.

You have a red and a blue "together" that supply's the charge to the bulb, it's the other one you attach the loom too.

I was thinking, if it is drawing the power from the battery is it a- safe and b will it drain the battery as the power will constantly be supplied to the hid ballasts etc.

It is only live when the headlight switch is on

just fitted the harness and dont think its made any difference to the interference, will be driving it work in a bit so will see how it goes but at the moment :-( strange how what works on one car never seems to work on mine lol hey ho.

I have had hids4u for months with no interferance but as of yesterday when I fitted the audio booster now I get interferance? Any ideas?

 

[Andrewcupra TDI]

i got the hids4u thick ones and always had interference , just thinkin is it because ive mounted so close to battery

 

[LEE69]

Mine are close to the battery to, the small fag packet sized ones.

 

[Andrewcupra TDI]

nah mine are bigger than that , try and get some pics to show

but heres a link to what i got with the wiring diagrams etc

Yeah they only do two sizes, seems it's pot luck if you get interference or not.

 

[Andrewcupra TDI]

will get some pics up to show mine real terms , and then a little help on this wiring bit as to what i connect disconnect etc

 

[LEE69]

Have you bought a relay loom?

 

[Andrewcupra TDI]

no not yet

 

[ADAM_84]

I spoke to my dad about the interference I was getting after I had bought the loom, it can be being transmitted through the wiring harness or could be air born. Got my little battery powered radio, turned it on outside the car signal was good put inside the car with the lights on and it lost signal completely and if I put it near the ballasts I lose signal as well on it so you might want to try that before you buy the harness.

 

[Andrewcupra TDI]

well when fitting them , i had a radio on outside the car plugged into mains electricity
and was about a car length away from my car and when i turned my lights on it interfered with that radio too

 

[Andrewcupra TDI]

still need them pics will try dinner time

will this loom sort it out then ??

cheers

 

[LEE69]

What pics do you want?

 

[Andrewcupra TDI]

was going to take a pic of my actual balast from hids4u ,

would the loom fit mine
cheers

 

[LEE69]

Yeah they are universal they replace the lead with spades at one end and the other that goes into the ballast.
Just upgraded mine to 55W 4300k and used the same loom

 

[Andrewcupra TDI]

will look at ordering later then

why the change , did you have 6k last time ,
think the 4300k is a more oem yellow/white isnt it

was toying with them or 6k , went fot the 6 in the end , and are really bright

sure i read here that the loom makes it a little more brighter /crisper - did i read correctly

cheers
