I bought some JDM projectors for my 02 bugeye, the problem that i am having is that now i have the dreaded faint high beam light on when my lights are on, also my fog lights will not turn on at all no matter what posistion the switch is in. I am sure that i overlooked something but any help is greatly appreciated

unplug your daytime running lights? that seems to be something people tend to look past.

did this work? i bet it does

unplug the relay or the connector? and is it the relay under the hood or under the dash?

dash!

does anyone have a diagram of the underdash relays. i know that there are quiet a few just want to make sure that i am looking at the right thing

if you do a quick search under glovebox and drl you'll find a picture of which plug it is. if i remember correctly, it is the blue plug on the right side of the glovebox.

Or do a search for "DRL."

this happend to me when i upgraded to a wire harness. still have the oem lights. when i turn my fog lights on, i can see a faint highbeam indicator. and yes, i have done the drl mod

Ran into this when I did my Morette install. The ultimate cure was the fog light mod. Everything worked correctly after that. Don't know why, but it had to do with the fog light relay receiving ground from the low beam heaadlights. With the mod, the fog relay is grounded to the car, not thhrough a circuit. The answer lies in there.

well, i have the foglight mod too. i've had that mod for a few years now and the faint highbeam light didn't come on until i got the headlight harness. my car is weird........

Well you've stumped me...

With JDMSTI projectors, do i have to do the foglight mod to have the foglights to worK?

i have projectors in my 04 wagon that has the faint highbeam light, no light shows up on the foglight button either, just the highbeam light. i checked the power and non is getting to the lights, fuse is fine, assuming i need a new relay? not real sure what to do or look for... ANY INFO APPRECIATED!

i have a homemade dual relay harness for my 03... i did a lot of crap to my wiring and lights.

basically:

i get the same faint highbeam indicator light but only after turning on fogs with lowbeams.


here's my progression, in chronological order(iirc)... in gray to help you skip past it:

i have disabled DRL in the dash by unplugging the control plug behind the glove box in the cabin(the correct way... resistor is still connected)

i installed the OEM fog switch and relay myself because my car didn't come with fogs off the lot.

i have spliced into the fog wires by the fog plugs in the bumper cover... this has been removed and went unconnected to anything for a while.

i installed driving lights on their own harness with a switch and relay running off the battery getting the 85/86 coil across ground and passenger highbeam +12 (positive switched relay)... used to get +12 from another source.

i made and installed a dual relay headlight harness. it gets its coil signals from the driver's male 9007 connector. at this time while running 9007 bulbs in stock lights it was fine for a few months until something got crossed and the highbeam relay would stay tripped after being tripped. i don't know for sure what caused it but i went back to stock harness because it was running both filaments and would have killed bulbs like ants under a marathon. after a while i retested the relay harness and it seemed fine so i ran it. it ran very well and i never had the high relay sticking problem again after reinstall.

i then got JDM's and reattached plug connectors to the ends of it so i could run H1 lows and 9006 highs in the jdm's. woot. i tripped the driving light switch with the highs at this point too. all was well.

i got tired of the RHD beam fairly quickly and constructed H7/H7 dual beams with hawkeye wrx projectors retro'd in for their LHD beam, and gnar qualities.
at this point i decided i wanted fog lights as well, so i put my fog projectors in the bumper and soldered them to the stock fog switch.


most of the above doesn't matter. what does matter:

- DRL properly disconnected behind glove box
- dual relay wiring harness for dual high/low beams
- no fog mod(all wiring set up legally so fogs only come on with lows and driving only come on with highs and each are selectable within constraints)

symptoms:

after turning on fog lights, hi beam indicator gets VERY faint illumination(not as bright as harness malfunction, which was maybe half intense as highs on... this is probably 1/16th as intense as normal highs on). highbeams are off, not even glowing, and driving lights are off as well.

if i go from fogs and lows to highs with driving beams, the highs turn off but the driving beams stay on(relay coil does not disengage). fogs come back on, everything is normal cept the driving lights stay on and the high beam indicator still glows faintly.

diagnosis: the fogs should not put voltage into the highbeam. i think somehow the relay for the fogs is connected to the oem highbeam relay's 87a or vice versa, and some voltage is going across. really i'm stumped. i don't have any diodes in my dual relay harness... i'm beginning to think i may need some on the highbeam side of the harness.

anyone have a tested method of getting the fogs to stop lighting up the hibeam indicator?

Another related question:

My JDM HID has awesome whitish lighting when light is turned on, but after a min or so, color turns a little yellowish. Anyone else has similar problem?

no that's normal color cycling and you need to re-evaluate what's white and what's yellow. read more about how hid capsules work and you'll find that the "yellowish" color is the proper operating temperature that gives you the best light to see by... unless your bulbs have color shifted and are getting old. but usually they don't color shift to yellow.
