Hey all, so I just installed my new Umnitza ORION V4 angel eyes. They look fantastic and function properly. However, after I installed them, I'm getting a short or drain somewhere that's draining my car battery really fast.
I feel like the culprit is a short somewhere. When I connect my portable auto battery charger, it too looses juice pretty quickly and then I have to recharge that too.
I have the white trigger wire from the angel eyes harness soldered to the accessories wire in the ECU housing (red wire with white stripe and gold patches). The blue wire coming out of the harness is taped at the end to ensure it isn't touching anything. Each white wire coming out of the angel eye drivers is soldered to their respective grey-green wire going to the low beams.
Again, everything seems to work correctly. Angel eyes come on bright and steady with the accessories, and when I turn the headlights on they dim properly.
No bare wires are exposed, everything is securely wrapped with electrical tape.
How might I go about finding the short, or have I got my install wrong somehow?
EDIT: When I remove the positive connection for the harness from the battery post, it still seems like there's a problem. Issue with accessories wire connection maybe?
