  1. It's not occurring from a lack of power Being that you're driving a GM, it could very well be... Your two last post sounds a bit of BS to me..... Ie.... I'm not buying what you're selling.... There's too much info on the net(to actually learn), than for me to buy into your crapcocktion..... Your work-a-round probably cost less than 2 bucks....wonder how I know????? Not BS at all, and I couldn't care less if you're buying the fix I am offering, you are free to solve the problem any way you wish. I am telling you, the problem is NOT from a lack of power as discovered by an electric
  2. The problem is the spike of ac power coming from the lights as they turn on creating noise that then messes with the unit. Working with an electrical engineer and veteran car audio installer today, we found a fix that doesn't involve altering or messing with the HIDs, the unit, or harness at all and takes about 60 seconds to do if you have the correct parts. We will be making a number of the fixes both for our audio shop and to sell online for $20.
  3. Likely not. Its unfortunate but there are several inadequacies with the new units when it comes to the navi. So I'm noticing. I love the new gui and audio stuff, but feel like I'm taking a step back even further with navi.
  4. Thanks duder, but that was the first thing I checked. With my z3 I always had many options with ATMs in my area...I cant imagine those POIs would have been removed in the current map version, but is that possible? Is there any way to get the POI info from the z3 map files to access the local ATM locations to then upload them as custom POIs? Thanks again, you continue you be a major help.
  5. Which BB are you running and with which OS? I set my 9650 up with my 120 yesterday without issue. When you go to set it up on the 120 under bluetooth settings, go to "setup bluetooth" on the berry and instead of search, select "listen". You will then have to type in 1111 on your berry when prompted for the password. You should be golden from there.
  6. I am sorry but that goes beyond my knowledge. And while we have had this thread going I have done many Google searches to try and find a harness for you and have come up empty as well. In fact, Notto may no longer be offering dual harness options with their kits. PM forum member 1loudls and see if he has any insight into another solution. He is one of the most knowledgable installers on this forum. Thank you again for your time/help. When I get it sorted, I will make sure to post the fix in case any other gm truck owners run into the same problem.
  7. Yes. Most H.I.D. kits you buy allow you to specify what vehicle you have and provide a harness to plug into the vehicle harness for true Plug N Play. Now, most of these kits are cheap pieces of crap bough off of ebay but some high end kits also offer this option. I use NOTTO SE H.I.D. systems and have had excellent results. Thank you. The Philips system I have is most definitely not cheap crap (same lights/ballasts bmw uses, although I'm positive the harnesses are sources from someone else). I will check out notto and see if they have a harness system that allows me to fix this. If I used a
  8. You can try the following forum here: http://www.tahoeforum.com Other then that maybe try a google search for an HID harness for your vehicle. I appreciate that I need a different harness, I just am not sure what type of harness you are telling me I need/how it differs from mine. Am I looking to plug both ballasts into each factor harness? If I understood what exactly the harness changes from what I have now, I could go to google and get it sorted....sorry for the confusion, I have only ever dealt with Philips xenon kits meaning I have only ever used one type of harness.
  9. I am running a Blackberry Bold 9650 and have the same problem with the sort order that the rest of you are having, so it's not just an ios or htc issue.
  10. Well there might be but as far as I know with every post similar to this one, the only suggest that has fixed everyones problem is to eliminate the relayed harness. Most H.I.D. systems come with both types of harnesses. If yours did not, I would suggest doing a Google search for an H.I.D. harness for your type of vehicle or contact the manufacture of the system you have. Mine only came with the one harness. I'm not entirely sure what the new/different harness should be/look like as I have never dealt with this before. Here is a link(http://www.philipsxenon.com/philips-bulbs-ballasts-wiring-u
  11. Thanks for the help. The front passenger side HID is plugged into that side's harness. It then goes through a relay and goes to the other ballast/light, bypassing the driver's side headlight harness. I'm not sure there is any other way to set the HIDs up? Is there anything with wiring in the dash behind the unit I can do to fix this? i.e. cut the dimmer/illumination wire?
  12. Yup. Do you have a solution to this fix that doesn't involve removing the lights? Thanks.
  13. I installed my 120 yesterday and have been having a weird problem. I have a 2007 tahoe and when the automatic headlights turn on the unit pretty much becomes useless. Audio hardly plays from any source, meaning the volume could be set to 30 and there is just a slight wisper audible. When I turn the volume up, the volume doesnt change, however a minute to two minutes later it will respond and turn the volume up super loud. It also seems to disconnect from the sub as there is absolutely NO bass at all when this is all going on. To fix it I have to shut the truck off and turn it back on, in which
