Need help wiring the Daeos / Vista BMW Angel Eye DRL Harness
I purchased the harness from distantxtremes which comes with no instructions except the following i got from email
HARNESS = VEHICLE Red Wire with Fuse Holder = Red Wire/White Stripe (POWER) Red Wire with Insulated Male Spade Terminal = Yellow Wire/Blue Stripe (LOW BEAM WIRE) White Wire with Insulated Male Spade Terminal = Black Wire/Green Stripe or Blue Wire/Green Stripe (PASSENGER SIDE HALO WIRE) Black Wire with Ring Terminal = Metal Ground Stud on PASSENGER SIDE (GROUND) Black Wire with Insulated Male Spade Terminal = Black Wire/Green Stripe or Blue Wire/Green Stripe (DRIVER SIDE HALO WIRE) So I followed this PDF (http://www.namotorsports.net/docs/VIE90DRLHarness.pdf) I've got everything hooked up and now when I put the key fob in and press start. . . none of the halos turn on. But my passenger side headlight is on (with light switch in the off position) If I press the lock and unlock button, the passenger side headlight blinks with the beeps.

As I said, I don't know if this works by experience yet. The headlights are going to show up tomorrow, so I should know more by then. Please let me know if that works! |

switching the wiring worked for my passenger side.
Red to Black wire/green stripe White to Yellow wire/ blue stripe. But my driver side wasnt working with the Blue wire/green stripe so I had to remove the T tap and place it on the Black wire/ green stripe. Black Wire with Insulated Male Spade Terminal = Black Wire/Green Stripe or Blue Wire/Green Stripe (DRIVER SIDE HALO WIRE) After those 3 changes the halos work as DRL. Mine is 3/07 build. . . . could I have coded these instead of the harness as well?

I am in the process of installing my harness and I cannot seem to figure out why it is not working. I have checked all connections several times. The instructions say "Key on, and leave headlight switch OFF..." Does this mean put the key in the ignition so that accessories turn on? OR does this mean key in and start car?

That is the guide I used. My AEs are now lit up in all light modes, even the off position when the car is running. When the key is set to accessory mode and the car is not running the AEs only light up when the switch is turned to on. Is this the same as your experience?

Yes. . . they are working as intended (Angel Eyes as Daytime Running Lights) with the switch in the off position.
I always leave mine in the "auto" mode. . that way the AE's blink on and off when you lock and unlock your doors with they key fob.

I recently received and installed the daeos/vista angel eye harness for my BMW E90. Everything appears to be working perfectly except, I notice when I shut off the car, close the door and arm the alarm, the angel eyes now stay on for a while before shutting off. That isn't such a big issue, however at the mall today I parked the car at the indoor garage, I shut it off, close the door and armed the alarm and the angel eyes stood on for several minutes. I got tired of waiting for the lights to go out so I got back in the car, turned it on and back off again and eventually they shut off. Why does it do this?

After lots of searching around for a solution to my install issues and error codes, what finally worked for me was finding the right power wire.
For the power wire I do not have a red w/ white stripe as most installs refer to (I have a smaller gauge white w/ red but that never worked), so I eventually clamped onto a thicker gauge red w/ yellow stripe wire and that worked. It was one coming from the cluster closest to the glove box. My other wires were black to ground. Passenger side black to black w/ green and white to yellow w/ blue (I did not have a red headlight wire with my harness as most seem to). Driver side was black to black w/ green. Hope this helps someone else. 2007 335i sedan. |
