Angel eyes

Post by Bowler »

Having trouble with the angel eyes on my replacement headlights.

All works fine on the bench the Angel eye wiring spliced into the side lights. All wiring checked on the bench (Kitchen top) through the block connecter yet when put back on car side lights fine no Angel eyes.
Any ideas folks?

Found article on Z Roadster.org
Unbelievable Black wire on light goes to white wire on lead, black wire on lead goes to red wire on light.
Six hours spent today only combo i didn't try :head:

Hi each light needs its own transformer . A so called electrical engineer i know fitted some and the wiring still burned out . its best to buy new units with projection angel eyes already installed. You can get them for around £250.
