bori862 · May 28, 2008

hey guys i got a problem two days ago one of my HID ballast went out so i replaced it but now if i have my lights on and i hit the brake my tail lights go real dim and my rear signal lights go on but not blinking also while the lights are on if i put on one of my signal lights my tails go very dim and the opposite turn signal in the back goes on but they have like a 2 second pause and if i hit the brake at the same time that my signal light is on i get no signals just both signal lights on in the back and tails very dim.. I hope u guys understood me any ideas

Que pasa Bori!

When changing the bulb did you by any chance remove the ground battery cable or the ground connected to the chassis ?

My lights were going dimming a lot when i press the brake pedal. it was because my ground wire connected to the chassis was not connected properly. I fixed that and the dimming went away.

Make sure you have a good ground connection.

GOod luck.
