Silvia dual projector light question
 
1 Attachment(s)
I just bought a 240 with the Silvia front end conversion, and I want to know if the lights are hooked up right.

The places that have X's are lights that are NOT on. BTW the headlights are the Dual projectors, not the triple.

i would think that the first two a swapped?

Yeah thats what I thought, but when you click the lights once... nothing lights up except for the bumper lights. I dont know which ones are supposed to be the high beams, low beams ect...

I do know that on the triple projectors the yellow bulb closest to the grill lights up when you turn your parking lamps on. I dont know why it would be different for these lights..???

The person that had it before you might have thought it looked better wired that way. So it might have been done intentionally. Probably as simple as swapping some wires.

Yes, I realized that when I was talking with them about the car. I just want the lights to light up in the correct order. If they are then awesome, but if not I would like to change them.

Thanks...

I believe its supposed to be the driving lights when you click once. Then when you click it to turn your headlights on it should be the round projectors (the ones in the first pic) and driving lights.

Then when you click for brights the other 2 should light up on each unit. Like i said i believe that is what its supposed to be but its been a while since i have seen a set of them at night. Or actually payed attention to the order at which the come on. Can anyone back me up here.:D

i would have to agree with you on this one TWAN. it just makes sence that that is the way it is supposed to be

Can anyone verify that? 100% sure thats how they are supposed to be?

Thanks for all the help guys

I know that the first click are the side lights or bumper and the second are the headlights. But the third are the high beams. Maybe you did do the wiring wrong. Doesnt hurt to check again and play around with it :)

I havent meesed with anything yet. I want to know if they are wrong, and if they are I'm going to fix it. Otherwise I'm leaving it alone. But I dont think its right, just waiting to see if anyone else does...

Thanks

ok here is what i found for you. click one should be the parking lights (corner lights), click two should be headlights outer set of projectors, brights are the inner set of projectors, and the inside halogen lights are switched fog lights. there is a switch in the inside where the dash switches are and one should be for the fog lights. hope this helps

TypeOne 12-04-2004 03:35 PM

Awesome, thanks for that info I will fix them. Also, are the bumper lights supposed to be lite up all the time? Or are they only for signaling?

Thanks!

carofchoice 12-04-2004 03:45 PM

signaling only if there is one casing. i had a 180 and there where two bulbs in it. one was for signaling and the other a parking light
