actually just did some reading. would be better to get aftermarket HID's as the ballast would have been removed from the headlight along with oter components that the car came with from fatory.

all good thread can be closed sory lol

now i have figured out the wires coming out of the xenon with the metal mesh thing around it will joing onto the other end thats still sitting behind the headligs atm. what is the yellow plug with wires for???

i would like to get this done hopefully this weekend so any help from those who has done it will be great. be even better if i can bring the car to you and if you can do it for me??? :D

fark it cold out :D

anyway took off hes headlight but hes xenons are different to urs, maybe because its a NA

but the yellow wire plug should go into the resistor and the 2 wires should go into the back of the middle globe, there will be a rubber gromet with 2 wires there most likely.

actually shouldnt be to hard to fix, solder the globe wires and then plug in the yellow wire plug and solder the other 2 wires

edit: ill be at my missus' saturday in lalor if you want me to try and fix it

NA's didn't have xenons

unless its a gt-v maybe?

what do the parkers look like?

a circle, or a square?

ye i figured out where the other wires go apart from the yellow on.

no you say should be plugged at the back of the light.

this is the back of the light here

im thinking the yellow plug could be connectors for the headlight adjustment from inside the car.

prob be easy to pull the headlight out and see if anything else is tucked in there.

thanks anyways nick. it is pretty cold outside lol

r34 xenons dont have washers, so they are illegal

ok fair enough. i wondered why they were removed.

thanks for the info.

im not in any hurry removing mine though :D .

sorry for jumping in your thread like that ashneel.

    • How do you go about diagnosing ecu's that don't have data logging, is it more experience at that point and just trying out things that you think will fix the issue?
    • Stock O2 are basically useless beyond anything at stoich. Any misfire will also be seen as lean. The stock O2 also read a collective exhaust gas volume, not each cylinder. Sputtering and missing means not each cycle is firing, and some are. Which means even if rich, as shit, on cylinders as they miss, they'll read lean, but the cylinders that did fire will read rich, and combined, well, they can read anything from rich to lean.   Start with the basics before even going looking at sensor values.   Edit: I say the above, and that's coming from the guy with a few thousand dollars worth of scan tools sitting right beside me right now that I use frequently for my job.
    • I just finished up a manual swap and I have a 1999 S2 AWD automatic in my garage, depending on where you are located. I'm in the the midwest of the US.
    • I’ve heard it can be done, you need to redrill the holes where they bolt to the chassis and apart from that they are the same. I’ve never done it or know anyone personally that has, it’s just something I’ve heard 
    • If it's reading full rich prior to a misfire that gives one directional hint, if it's already reading lean, etc. If it's reading pretty cleanly stoichiometric then suddenly drops out from a misfire that suggests it's not air mass estimation that's the problem. Could be ignition, could be something more subtle. Could be the CAS has decided to start dropping out at random or the drive pin is worn leading to excessive lash and trigger errors. LTFT can tell you the same but it's slower to react and if this is a recent issue it might not have stabilized. STFT stuck in one direction vs fluctuating back and forth can be used instead but I like to read O2 voltages anyways and interpret directly. If the O2 voltages make no sense in general or are super slow to react it could also be a failing O2 sensor. There's no real error correction for failing O2 sensors in these cars.
