Default Re: TRUCK KEEPS DYING EVERY OTHER WEEK

Capacitors man... caps..the little cylinder thingies in your electronics..

I'll be god damned, but I found my problem tonight. As i said before I disconnected all kinds of **** including my HID lights. But I only disconnected them at the ballasts.

I pulled the cover off my fuse block and yanked the main power feed there where my HIDs are powered off of. Obvoiusly that killed everything, but i didn't reconnect the power to the HID's when i connected it back up. Drain was about 25mah. WTF, no more drain, its the damn lights!... So I go to the HID manufacturers website and there's a little notice a couple pages deep about the H1 and H2 HID kits. The plug that connects to the relays IS WIRED WRONG! Swapped the 2 wires and everything is great.

I am so glad I figured this damn thing out...was gonna take it to the dealer monday if i didn't find the cause this weekend.

If anyone if wondering which HIDs are factory wired wrong, its this set-
