I found it. Thanks man. I have hi beams for the first time in 3 years lol.

Any one wanna explain the bypass for the fogs to me again?
 
Well it looks like my headlights are wired in wrong. It's something to do with the oem plug. I remember moving stuff around with my first hid kit. But don't remember what I moved..... Right now when I'm in the low beam position, my fogs are on and my highs are on. In the high beam position, my fogs are off and my low beams are on. And the blue light for high beams is now on whenever my headlights are on.

Does anyone know which wire is which on the oem harness side for the plug? I know one is high, one is low and one is ground. Don't know which is which though.
 
Going to be installing a capacitor later to help the battery fight the voltage draw, since the Microtech does not have a battery compensation table. Then Friday I'm off to Asheville for the dyno tune. Shooting for 170whp. ;)
 
So I was browsing through some random threads yesterday and came across one about someone having issues with the rear door locks not working when you lock the doors. Being curious, I read through just to see what the fix was. and what do you know, today my right rear door lock stopped working!!! Any time I lock or unlock the doors, there is this loud and weird sound coming from the rear and the right rear lock doesn't go up or down. Looks like I'll be ordering a replacement gear for the motor soon. I really don't care for the rear doors since I never use them but the sound is annoying.
 
i konw what you mean spice... both mine make that Grrrrrrrr sound, i can lock it manually but once they unlock, they arent moving anymore.... oh well.. for now.... For Now..... :)

Meh just weld your doors shut. then they're locked forever :)
 
im pretty sure my day could get worse but anyway, now my car won't idle right. and if I let it idle for a few minutes, it will just shut off. It shows all the symptoms of misfiring. My wires are brand new because it was misfiring with the wires and plugs I had before. So, since they are new, I just replaced the plugs and gapped them. Now, the car has a bouncing idle like a lot of hondas have..lol. I'm about to spray my MAF with maf cleaner to see if that does anything. Oh yeah, I also found some scratches on my hood today. Looks like someone rubbed something really coarse on it. I guess everyone was right, spicy orange is the cursed color of the group

Pull the door panel off and unhook your door lock, mine was doing the same thing and until I can find a new motor to go in there it's just unhooked, still have to manually put the lock up or down but it don't make the noise when you hit the button
 
Check for a vac leak.
I found a nice size hole in a hose that was connected to my bpv. If anyone knows what the CS intercooler kit looks like. The hot pipe has a fitting on it to retain use of the stock bpv. Well, I have been running a bov/bpv setup since I've had their kit on my car. I installed the MAM exhaust manifold a few months ago and with the way the runners are made on the tubular manifold, they sit pretty close to where the hose is for the bpv. So, long story short, the MAM pretty much melted a hole into the hose going from the hot pipe to the bpv. There is no way to move the hose as the fitting is slightly angled towards the manifold. I'm leaning towards removing the bpv all together and just running the bov, more than likely recirculated. Otherwise, I'll be replacing hoses every month because of the manifold. I just have to find a way to cap off the fitting on the hot pipe now. There is no guarantee that that is the problem, but that is what I have found so far.

I may have to do that. I'll probably knock that out tomorrow.
