104236, headlight issue
Posted by Hedge, Nov-22-09 10:17 AM
So ive got ebay projectors on my car, and one of them seems like it hates being on my car.

When ever i turn the car on, only one headlight comes on, when i turn the lights on. the one comes on normal, and the other only dimly comes on. usually after about 30 seconds or so of driving if i flash the highbeams, then the lights work perfectly. I have no idea what the hell is doing this, and im guessing its because they are ebay lights, anyone have some ideas.

Did you check your wiring? Sounds like a loose wire.

There's your problem right there. Not as good of quality as most that you buy from a retailer. Like buying the "OEM" style headlights on ebay. They never compare to the OEM quality.

Do what teklein said, check your wiring and make sure its ok. Double check and make sure the connection aren't fried because that can give you problems too. 3g's had a issue where one of the light sockets would fry and cause the lamp to be dimly lit.

I had a set of ebay projectors never had one problem. I do have a brand name set of projectors for my new eclipse build but I got them for a good price or I would have bought ebay projectors again.
