For the past 2 months or so, my car will very randomly decide to just make a hiss sound when I turn the key. 9 times out of 10 when that happens, I can just turn the key back and try again and it starts right up. Another notable detail is about the same time this issue starting occurring, my headlight at night would occasionally flicker and go out. (only one would flicker or go out but it wasn't always the same one. One day the left would flicker, one day the right would flicker..) I also put installed my angle eyes not long before these issues but don't know if that could be related or not. I'm guessing it could be a grounding issue, at least for the headlight problem, but really not sure... Any suggestions would be appreciated

You could get back into the computer module where you spliced into for the power lead (not so sure, it has been a while that I installed my AE).

Essentially, unhook the angel eyes and see what happens.

If it continues, I would look into the battery age.
