or if you want to drive 2.5 hours the other way I can help

Ha ha...

resevil83 · 04-24-2003, 11:42 PM

hey... mike, can you tell me where I would be going? If I were to hall out I'd want to go friday (tomorrow)... That is my free day. If it can work on such short notice that'd be really cool. I looked at the drl kit and I just kinda laughed because this surpasses my knowledge. I may be able to come saturday but I'd have to get up really early, or even next friday.

silentalero · 04-25-2003, 08:11 AM

Dan,. Guru is having a mod day at his house later in May...you could wait until then. Mike has done his so he knows how to do it.

Actually, email Mike (mike@chicagograndam.com) and maybe he can help this weekend...just a thought

Lafayette, IN. 47905. Unfortunately, I am out of town this weekend, but would be happy to help next weekend.

The kit has 14 wires to cut and tap. Pretty easy, just watch the colors and directions CLOSELY.

UNCTYPE-S · 04-25-2003, 11:23 PM

i too, am awaiting my drl kit in the mail. i know a guy by me that is good with electrical stuff, so it will be cake work for him.

silentalero · 04-26-2003, 02:34 PM

well just got done installing and was a breeze....for him,

(considering I did 99% of the work, hehe) but yea they work great, but problem being now is the SVC light? Anybody know what it could be?

UNCTYPE-S · 04-26-2003, 11:17 PM

Yes, its an SVS light. Yes, the kit stops that from coming on. Its probably an installation error, that is 99.999% of all problems we see. Did you remember to bend over/cut off the correct pin on relay #22 under the hood?

-Mike

silentalero · 04-27-2003, 11:24 PM

yea it was bent the indetical way the picture showed.

resevil83 · 04-28-2003, 01:37 PM

hey guys! I just wanna thank Mark for installing the kit for me... I ughh got REALLY sick later that day... and now I am still sick but it's cooling down, maybe because I slept around 20 hours straight. Anyways I get an svs light, but no worries... I think it could be like a misswire somewhere... Or weak crimp even though he did a good job crimping.. The kit works as it should I guess except for the svs light... As soon as I get better I'll check everything out... Thx guys...

Panacea · 04-28-2003, 08:33 PM

Did you bend over the relay wire?

UNCTYPE-S · 05-03-2003, 07:24 PM

whats the update, what happened? i just received my drl kit in the mail today and am looking to install it soon.

resevil83 · 05-04-2003, 10:37 AM
