#HID CONVERSATIONS VS HALOGEN INSTALL#
#HID CONVERSATIONS VS HALOGEN DRIVER#

I'd appreciate any advice/suggestions on this issue. The current lamps are 100/90 watts, and they are working fine, but with the proliferation of eye-dazzling lights on the road today, I feel blinded at times.

#HID CONVERSATIONS VS HALOGEN INSTALL#

My query is this - I want to install HID/projector lighting for my 2004 Scorpio, which I am otherwise very happy with. In that case, I will need to add an error cancelling resistor to the circuit. However, if I try putting an LED bulb in my tail light cluster, then that bulb will flicker and I will get an error, as the resistance is lower than expected. Since my headlights are not monitored by the CAN BUS, I do not need a CAN BUS ballast. I am running quad projectors with regular 35W ballasts in my car without issues or errors for the past one year. This would cause the HIDs to flicker like a strobe light, if they are monitored. It also sends a pulsating current to the circuit in an attempt to turn on the failed light. When the CAN BUS detects a failed bulb, by measuring the resistance of that circuit, it then turns on a warning light in the console as well as displays a message in the MID. Logic being - if any of these lights blow, they will be noticed or they are not critical for safe operation of the car.

It does not monitor interior lights, third brake light, head lights and fog lights. It monitors only turn indicators, tail & brake lights and parking lights. In case of my car, FIAT Linea T-Jet, the CAN BUS monitors only critical lighting that can go unnoticed if blown.

One of the functions of the CAN BUS is to monitor the bulbs and ensure they are working and alert the driver if they are not. The CAN BUS is a network within theĬar's electronics that allow communication between various computers on the car. Unless your car comes with CAN BUS and the headlights are monitored, there is no benefit to using a CAN BUS ballast. Heard about this term for the first time. And without CAN BUS it would be around 8,000. I just got to talk to the person at VTM : but here I landed up on some person (according to him) has been dealing with HIDs for around 5 years and he suggested me to go for HIDs with CAN BUS technology. Brilliant pricing, I will surely have to get a personal inspection done. The person on the other side of the phone was not keen on talking to me and somehow told me that they sell this at Rs. To my astonishment, AM Distributors, who are also the HELLA distributors in the region answered my call. Tįinally I got hold of both the Dealers, as some of the numbers on the page shared are apparently not in use. Let me talk to those distributors and see whether I can get hold of one from them.

I got really confused talking to these people.
