    Headlights.....Low Light Output

    in SOS! Help!!

    Posted

    Yup that coupled with the new headlights. 

     

    Change the wires and connecting plug (its normally the bulb plug that melts and the connecting copper bits get corroded.

     

    I have the same problem with my Mitsy at the moment so i just got newer connections of an 2001 Colt.

    I had a this problem mate. Had HID's great light but when i went back to H4 Bulbs for NCT (MOT) it was dangerous to drive at night. I bought Brand new Headlights from Honda still did'nt fix the problem so i went to my spares car and cut the head light wires of it put em on my road car and boom lights better than my Mams 2007 toyota Auris dips and full beam. Any H4 car wires should work as long as u wire them correctly solder and shrink wrap them i am just lucky to have 2 parts MB's  ecstatic.gif1

     

    Hope this helps mate

    well its in good enough shape except for the 40mm lowering springs that are cut so you get a 100mm drop angrymod.gif1

    so the floor pan has it the ground a few times hahah there is like and inch between the spring and the top of the shock when at full extension sinful WACK11111

     

    dents and it was bought in Donegal (all cars that come from Donegal have the excrement drove out of them lol hence the engine rebuild sort of)

     

    i know it sounds like a waste of money just for a D16 but im going to fill the shell full of old metal and scrap it so i should make about 200 on that i also have a few catalytic converters to scrap get around 30 to 50 each so not worried :D

    So a list of things to do to get it looking pretty after mechanical are done.

     

    Put door cards to match the half leathers on.

    Put on 2 new Back doors. Have from my last M.

    Lip kit, bumpers and rear arches need dents/scuffs painted

    get as many dents removed as possible i cant stretch to a full respray <_<(this will be done by a professional who says he can remove dents without damaging paint)

    Paint and fit spoiler.

     

    Remove sunroof to strip off the old cloth of the headliner maybe do something mad or just a plain black cloth haven't decided yet

     

    And a new set of 16" Ray Volks or something along them lines maybe weddsports etc..

    wheel sensor rear left.

     

    if you look through the video again mate, the first flash is a long one, the next 7 are faster.

     

    first long flash indicates 10, the next faster flashes indicates 1, put them together and you get 17 as you had 8 flashes all together. 1 long flash and 7 shorter flashes

     

    Ah my god feel like a knob now lol i couldnt understand if i read the long flash or not blush.gif1 im used to OBD2 my mate has a £5000 diagnostics computer but he dosent have OBD1 :/
