Xenon coding issue??
« on: April 30, 2015, 06:59:31 pm »
Just checking if this right, coded some xenons for a member on here ( @rukz ). Coded it as xenons with shutter installed, wires are run to the cecm.  However when the xenons are off and you flash the lights, the halogens dont flash,the xenons do.  Is that correct?

There's another check box  (can't remember which one) where you can enable halogens. Work your way through all the check boxes and you'll find it

I think I did check  that and try but then when the xenons were on and you flash, the halogens would flash as well as the xenon shutters. Really weird.

Only just realised you started this thread @vw55raz  :happy2:

I do like the way it is now with the xenons flashing (looks like a far newer car).

However, I'm constantly worried incase the bulbs/ballasts get damaged or completely go :sad1:

@rukz had a look on another car to day which has factory fitted xenons  and his ones also do the same,  guess thats how they are.
