Installed mine yesterday and I'm think I must have pulled a wire off of one of the LEDs or something because all I get are different shades of blue, purple, and red and my interior LED still lights up all colors. The only good thing about this is that both halos are in sync (i.e. one doesn't light up red and one green) unless I messed up the same wire on each LED lol. I have tried to reprogram the lights, but that doesn't seem to fix anything.

I defintely won't be taking the LED's out again unless I pay someone to do it haha.

I also can't run my dome lights and associated footwell lighting at the same time as the halo's. No blown fuses though. Not sure what the deal is there.

Would anyone be able to post the install PDF? I'd like to take it to a shop for an estimate.

Can someone hook me up with the programming for the remote. Everything had been working fine but now my halos come on in both ignition and battery but I can't get them to do anything else. Earlier today the went through all the colors, speed and fades but I'm not sure if the remote is jacking with with me.

Thanks!

The instructions to reprogram the remote have been posted in this thread a few times.

How to reprogram remote:

Turn switch inside car to no power
Hold down brightness up and brightness down and power button all at once for 15 seconds or so
Turn switch to battery power while still holding all 3 buttons, keep holding the buttons for 15-20 seconds while the box relearns the code.

May take you 2 or 3 tries but it will work.

Thanks and I've tried this now for about 6 times to no avail. The lights come on red when I kick the lights into the battery mode while still depressing the bright up/down and power button at once. I should be able to turn the lights on and off with the remote and nothing is responding at all. I've done the battery pull as well which is not an easy thing but I have managed to be able to to hold all three buttons down and use my right foot (big toe) to press the button on the kick panel to No PWR or Batt Mode.
When I flip the lights into battery, they flash white and then go to red and stay red. Damnedest thing I've seen and its got to be something relatively simple too.

I'm open to suggestions on this. Could my batteries be bad? Everything was OK yesterday after install and as it stands now, it doesn't matter whether I'm on batt or ignit, the lights don't respond with the remote..

Doesn't sound like the issue is in the LEDs. You are missing the green channel at both halos. In your controller, the green channel will come from the terminal connector...one wire to the resistor, and then out to each halo, and one wire out to the interior LED. I'd check the wire that comes out of the terminal connector and goes to the resistor for the green halo LEDs. If you have a multimeter then you could check the connections. Call Jeremy.
