hi all,

i have a 2005' E60
i recently bought a hid kit and installed and noticed they only stay on for
about 1 minute then flicker and turn off, the passanger side only turns on sometimes, so i bought the relay wiring kit thing, i hooked it up turn the fogs on with the car off and everything is fine, but when i start up the car the relay that is part of the relay harness kit i bought starts Buzzzzing like crazy.....

can someone please help and tell me what is wrong and how to correct this?

thanks
digi

Buy Canbus version of the kit, they have the cancellers built-in or just buy the correct cancellers on their own.
I have a canbus version for my fogs and never had any issues.
Got them umnitza along with a pair of projector fogs.

i also heard that if the kit does not have a canceller, it will cause problems...
