Shunt mod

[Capt. Canuck]

Just finished installing an H.I.D. aftermarket to MY03, and yes I've read and know that using HID on standard halogen housing is not a good idea but heck with the better lumination that I'm getting now I'm willing to break the rule.

In any case, aside from the upgrade I also did the shunt mod, it was quite easy actually. The warning light was off for a good 3-4 days then today it started flickering on & off every so often.

I checked the headlights when it does it but the headlights stay on.

Anybody got any ideas.

You might want to make the drilled hole in the shunt just a wee bit bigger. It doesn't take much to change the resistance of the shunt, so easy does it. I had the same problem and I went to the next bigger drill size in my set and that did the deal.

Cheers,

Bill
