    New Angel Eyes Help

    Ok guys so I searched online a lot before taping the wires. The angel eyes look badass but they just won’t turn off! I am almost 100% sure I tapped the right wire based on what it said online. What else could it be?

    I have given it an hour and still don’t turn off.


    ... should’ve stayed stock... lol

    Is been a while. Did you also wire through the footwell in order to have switchable control.? Maybe that part is messed up.

    I don't remember exactly, but you tap one wire in the fuse box so that it only gets power when the car is on. The other wirr you tap into is the footwell light on the passenger side so that the angel eyes come on with the footwell lights - aka when you lock unlock or open the cars doors.

    My guess is you maybe tapped into the wrong wire? Sometimes they stay on after a long drive, but it's just extra power being displaced and they go off after 5 min. An hour is definitely overkill

    Just an FYI, I recently disconnected the wire to the passenger footwell light. After a while it gets very annoying when you need to do some work in the car with the lights on and it drains your battery.

    Just push the button on the interior dome light and they turn off

    Everywhere I’ve read online it says to tap it into the red wire with the yellow dotted lines like my picture. So weird that it didn’t work for my car

    The system is supposed to shutdown after a period of time ( interior lights too) but sometimes this doesn't happen. I've had my angel eyes stay on for quite a long period of time then next time I shut off the car they are fine

    The interior lights turn of. Just don’t understand why they stay on. Maybe it’s a bad relay. I’m going to disconnect the battery for about an hour and connect it back see if that resets the ECU.


    ...Maybe my ECU just likes to PARTY and never go to sleep.
