Hi guys,

I have had my stagea for a few months now, was happy with the halogens that were put in during compliance, however i asked them to keep the plugs and globes for me.

So the other day my drivers side halogen light went out, so I decided it was time to install the xenons.

The big plug for the HID globes was just tucked in there, so pulled it out and plugged in the globe, but no luck.

Here is a pic of the headlights & wiring, hopefully it is something that compliance has done in rigging up the halogens as there is two wires that have been cut as shown below.

Hopefully someone can tell me what the problem is!

Cheers

Sam

hey mate...

all you need to do is get power to the cut wires when headlights are on.... from what i can see they have taken off the plug that the loose one plugs into...

i rekn all you gota do it cut the plug that was dangling... and crimp it to the wires that are cut :).... remember not to touch your xenon globes!... a there f**kING hot... b you dont want prints on them as it can blow them...(not cheap)

yep, works a treat. Thanks for your help.

Its quite simple really, but I thought it wasnt that as I couldnt find anything on here that related, as im sure this is what most compliance shops do.

Anyway hopefully this thread help more people with their HID / xenon wiring to reinstall after compliance.

    • I much prefer that to an actual oil pressure issue, never would of thought it would of been a volt drop issue but SAU brains win again. Guess ill be turning down the oil pressure limit for the track and hunting some grounds. Ill hopefully update this thread with some high oil pressure and solid ecu voltage logs. 
    • You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster. 
    • Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!
    • That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect 
    • i cant get them all in 1 screenshot unfortunately as i just dont know how to move things around tbh, but they are all from the same log and the line crosses at the same point for all of them
