I installed the harness and everything was okay for a day or two, then the lights would not come back on, I disconnect and hook up the original harness and everything works fine. What would seem to be the issue?

I tried hooking it up two different times and both times after a day or so, the lights would not come back on...

 

did you check the relays in the new harness?

 

No.....I figured they would be good as they were new. If the relays were bad, why would they work for a day or two then stop working? I guess I could get new relays.....

When it comes to electrical things I am retard.....

 

The lights worked great when the harness was hooked up. Nice and bright, I just wish they would work all the time.

 

Double check your grounds... also, could definitely be a bad relay. Just happens out of the box on some.

 

The grounds should be good. I hooked them to the radiator support mounts, where everyone else has put them. Are those relays just standard relays? Like I could get new ones easily?

 

I think they are pretty standard. I would have to look at mine when I get home, probably just a 5 pin Bosch style relay.

 

Copy that.....I will just take one off and find where to get them locally.

Thanks for your help!

 

I've bought a total of 4 cheap china harnesses for different cars. One of them had the relays go bad in a week. It was cheaper at the time to buy a whole new harness than new relays.

 

Any auto parts store should have one. 10-15 bucks if I remember correctly.

 

eautoworks doesn't carry replacement parts....GRRRRRRR

Guess I will either have to buy a whole new harness or find a relay that works.

 

there are relays that work, search amazon and NAXJA. theres a thread somewhere, i have it bookmarked at home.

 

Think if it were me I'd be calling up whoever I ordered it from and asking them to send me a new harness.

 

It looks as if the AC Delco part #E1729 will work ($29.99)

Most people have a problem with the cheap chinese relays.....
