Hi guys,

I have had px3 lights put on my px2. Headlights (HID) flicker on start up and come good after a little driving. Battery is good (12.6ish). Heard that dlr's need to be off as they draw power and wont allow the hid to start. They have been wired into the wiper motor so on ignition, key on they r on.

Thank you.

Assuming you also used the headlight control module? you should not have any issues. If you have not added this then this is probably why.

You would be best to wire it factory if possible as it rules out all pretty much every issue you will face. You would be best get hold of the wiring diagrams and do the install properly.

Basically if I look at adding modules from newer vehicle or to vehicle where the module did not exist before then I wire it per factory and use all factory modules as per the diagrams. I have never had an issue following these rules.
