Hello guys, a newbie here...

This past weekend I installed Extreme H7 HID from vision bulbs in my Mazda 3, 2005. I took my car to a bodyshop were they supposedly have done this type of installations before.

The thing is that in cerain circumstances I get a really annoying buzz noice when the lights are in Auto or even in Off mode! Besides the noice they start to flicker as well. The noice actually kicks in as soon as a pull down the parking break!?!

The installation gurus have no idea what could it be the problem

Any similar experiences and possible solutions?

If I actually start the engine and leave the lights in On mode they are ok and no buzz noice, but it's not nice to have a "half" good installation.

Please help!!!

Thanks,
Maff

The shop you took it to did not bypass the DRL.

BTW, visit BCMazda3.com if you haven't already.

Yeah, you need to bypass the daytime running lights because the HIDs aren't getting enough power causing the flickering, this is bad for you HIDs.

You can use a relay, sold by one of the sponsors http://thexenonstore.com/relay.php to have no DRLs during the day and still having your AUTOlights feature...or you can use the same relay to have you HIDs on at full power all the time.
