headlights not turning off

Recommended Posts

i have an m reg corrado vr6 storm, fitted ddi dials yesterday. today when at a mates house his dad came in and said my headlights were on wen i went out they were off so i thought he might be loopy. however when i got home i realised he was telling the truth ang my lights wouldnt turn off. i have a hid kit fitted,, and yesterday i used the thick gray/yellow wire from the back of the headlight switch to power the ddi dials. any ideas?

Corrado light switches can be very ropey components. On this forum, shorting has been known to set cars on fire such that they were totally burnt out and destroyed.

 

A fix using an extra fuse is described here on the forum. Consequently, though I am no electrician, I would not think it wise to use a lead off the switch.

Has it got an uprated headlight loom. Mine has and once found the headlights on. Turned out water had got into the relays.

 

Failing that, how long have the DDI dials been done... could be something to do with that wire as you say.
