Hello All,

 

I recently got my Z130BT installed in my car and from then on I am noticing a buzzing sound whenever I turn on headlights. It goes away when I turn off the headlights. Does anyone have similar issues and can anyone suggest what could be the issue here?

 

Thanks

Do you have a HID's installed on your car? If you do yes some HID's does interfere with the HU

No, I do not have any HID's installed on my car. I only got DRL installed on my car when I took it from US to Canada but other than that nothing.

So HID lights will interfare with the Pioneer HU's ?

will they interfare with the X930bt ?

 

I have a Set HID kit from a company called DDM Tuneing so

what will happen will i get interference is there anyway to filter that out or will i have to change out and go back to my Old Stock HeadLamps ?

Mostly it will interfere with the relay. I also have a Honda Accord with HIDs and Z110-120-130bt but I don't have a relay. So I never got that problem. Sometimes it's also interfere with the foglights

i am a little confused so if i am not using a relay on the system for a bypass then i won't have any problem with the HID interference ?

or am i missing something

Relay either I mean it's for the HID's or for the fog lights. Usually when you have a foglights switched on then if you flash it to the high beam foglights switch off by itself that means you have a relay on the foglights. Also some HID's have a direct connection which is plug n play but some of them connects through the relay.

Something is NOT grounded properly. That is why you are hearing a buzzing sound when operating your headlights.

 

I've even seen wiper blade operation cause the Buzzing sound, but usually headlights is the main culprit. Go back to your installer and tell them you hear buzzing when you turn on your headlights, they will know right away something is not grounded properly if they are good.

Thanks for the responses. I will get my installer to fix this issue.

I went to a new installer and all my issues are fixed now and he did the bypass as well.
