Hmmm..what's wrong with my foglight?
 
OKay..this just started happening a couple weeks ago.l

I got these aftermarket LED lights. BEAUTIFUL..they look great.
However something peculiar is happening.

WHENEVER I Get on the highway and get up past 30mph...my right front foglights starts to flicker!!!!
What gives w/that? It doesn't do it when I'm driving down a city street or when the car is standing still
But for some reason..driving at higher speeds causes it to flicker wildly. It's quite annoying. Not to mention a cop attention grabber.

My theory is that it's one of two things:

1)I'm thinking my REALLY rought suspension (TEIN HA) might have pryed something loose in the LEDs and it's just a loose connection(but wouldn't it then flicker at lower speeds too?)

2)I think there's something wrong w/my wiring in my car. Something in the current is wrong. Maybe I need grounding..I'm not sure. I also noticed that my lights in my car STEREO are flickering too! Maybe they're unrelated?

IF anyone has had something similar happen or has theories..I'd appreciate your insights

If the stereo and the fogs are flickering at the same rate, then you can almost for sure bet it's the wiring. And yes the stock grounding sucks so you might want to relay some grounding for each fog. If I remember right, you have the clear corners brick LED fog light. That may need quite a bit of grounding, but I don't know about the specific design.

Sinizque
 
I can't confirm that they stereo situation and the foglight situation are related but my suspicion is that it has to do with grounding because there's just SO much electrical stuff that I've added w/out proper grounding.

ANyone in my area who can help w/this???

Get a grounding kit. It makes a huge difference.
