Went to see my coder, all headlight errors now rectified as is the flicker on start. We decided instead of remote coding just to meet up, My wiring was all good too so now mine is 100% sucessfull retrofit!  |
FANTASTIC!! CONGRATS!
For the record and to help others, what exactly did you have to do - was there more coding to do or was it wiring? Some details would help others down the road.
FYI, folks are talking about putting a locking 'cap' on the OBD port, perhaps that is something to look into as well. Some are also just putting a 'switch' on one of the data bus wires going into the OBD so you can easily turn communication on and off (obviously hide the switch in a hidden place).
