Need assistance with Fog Lights (Orlando/UCF)

[gui]

Hey guys, I tried installing some fog lights from ebay a couple weeks ago.. Im pretty sure I did everything right, I followed the DIY exactly, but something is wrong; the lights dont turn on.

The ON/OFF button lights up and turns on and off when I push it, but nothing happens with the lights. I can't figure out what the problem is and the dealers wont help me since its not Genuine Honda Parts...

I was thinking of returning the lights and exchanging them for a new pair cause they might be defective but I figured I should get someone who knows what they are doing first and see if they can figure out what the problem is.

So yeah, If anyone in the area is willing to lend a hand and maybe meet up with me to take a look at my setup and troubleshoot it with me, I would GREATLY appreciate it and probably show some compensation...

If you have experience with the fogs, and think you could fix or find the problem, PM me or get ahold of me on AIM/Email and we can discuss it...


Any help is greatly appreciated.

hmm.......I got mine from ebays and I took it to eddie who works at holler honda with and we figured out that they sent an 05 wiring kit instead but he jimmy rigged and it works fine. I paid him 100 dollars though for install but It was money well spent.

there is a meet here in tampa on the 20th... go to the meet and i could probably help you... i install my own fog lights and they work great... i did all the wiring on it... so i could probably help you...

ah, tampa is a bit of a hike for a meet :\..

Im looking for anyone local to just meet up with me somewhere and maybe spend a little bit of time.

And I can't wait that long, I kinda need to get it figured out ASAP because the company on ebay is waiting on my response of whether or not its defective and I need to send it back.

[gui]

Come on anyone!

I WILL pay you if you fix it!!!

I really need to get it figured out asap so I can tell the company whether or not im returning it.

[Supermpr1]

well who did you buy it off on ebay first of all k2?

[gui]

vertexracing. It appears to be exactly like the k2motors set.

well I am at work but if you have a multi meter with you. check the relay that it came with. In there You should have 2 wires that should have 12 volt all the time. if you dont have that then you connect something wrong or you blew out a fuse. check the DIY it shows you which wires are the positive 12 volts. good luck !!!

That's awesome thanks a lot man. It will work out perfect cause tomorrow is like my only day off. I have an appointment at the dealership at holler honda tomorrow around 2 to take care of a few other problems. They said they dont really want to help me with my fogs since they are aftermarket but they would be able to "diagnose the problem" charging me a diagnostic fee of like 75 dollars which is definately not worth it.

But yeah, after I am done with the dealership I am available and I guess we can meet somewhere. Where would you prefer meeting and who else would come?

Btw, my number is 954 235 3300

[gui]

Also, who is the master tech you know at honda and which dealership? holler? You think he would be able to help me out or no?

[Angelsi06]

Sweet. He works at Holler. His name is Billy. He does work on the side so he cant do it at the d ship. BUt when you get there Solo8thgensi (Joey) Works there you can ask him to see if he can track billy down for you. Hes a porter

[gui]

Alright Ill see if I can find Joey. If you are still willing though, give me a call or text me when you get off work and are available to meet up with some guys like you said. Thanks for the help

[Angelsi06]
