Welcome to the club I did the install last Saturday go to power the lights on nothing called JDP did some trouble shooting over the phone no go, JDP thinks its the control box is no good so they will send out a new one no biggie things happen I did request that they send a new wiring harness out just incase but they did not they sent just the control box.
So this morning we go to install the new box I pull off the tires, wheel liners, bumper, and bumper support we plug in everything go to fire it up nothing no lights. We notice the red wire from the power connector has come out of the wiring harness it's not making contact with the other end then we also find another wire that runs to the fuse box has come apart from the butt connector so we get that reconnected and the other wire connected still no go. Ok so now I am not real happy the good news is another guy was at the same shop having his lights done but before they took his car apart we tested his lights on the work bench cool his functions perfectly so we test his box with my already installed wiring harness no go. Now we test my 1st control box with his good wiring harness nothing, we plug in the 2nd box we get a blinking light but the LEDs will not stay on they just blink ( they blink white) like we have a bad ground yet we already tested his box and everything worked great. So we try his box yep his setup works. Well we take his wiring harness and box and plug it into my headlights and led light Bingo it works so we can confirm my LEDs work but the two control boxes and my wiring harness are bad.
So I was back on the phone with JDP informing them of the testing. Justin said he would send out a new wiring harness, and new control box next week so we shall see if the 3rd time is a charm.
