    At 4:00 you talk about wiring to the door switch wire. On the 2018 Honda Accord, the door switch is no longer there. Do you know which wires to wire into for the positive wire for the door switch? I can't find where the switch is located now.

    So on the drivers side, there is a brown wire, and on the passengers side, there is a green wire to complete the circuit for +/- ? Did honda really do it this way ?

      You need to get yourself a digital multimeter. Even the cheap on that harbor freight give out from time to time will work. You just need to find one that is ignition switch. Something like your windshield wipers or side view mirror control.

    Nice video, I have a 05 Accord Ex, was thinking of doing this to my rear doors. Do you think the color of wires be the same? Any help will be appreciated. Another, the part # for the door pigtail,OEM, couldn't use one in Part 1. Please and thank you.

    • @gregsantos9731
      @gregsantos9731 2 роки тому

      I think wire colors are different, cause different cars uses different wires, few happened to be the same on some parts, I'll be doing this to a Toyota Rush 2020 model, the best thing to do is connect the ground wire directly to the door switch to just to make sure, since it's the only wire that we need to tap in to, except the positive red wire that goes directly to fuse box. Wish me safe . 😊

    Hi I need your help I own a 2012 Honda Pilot with existing door courtesy lights, I was attempting to install door projectors to doors. I was getting 12 volts previous to install but when I installed lights they would not come on. I am only getting 2-3 volts now and not even the existing courtesy light is coming on. I spliced into both wires from door courtesy light on passenger side. Since I could not finish this side I never attempted driver side. What do u think happened. Please advise. Thx. Also all other lights do come on.

      +Andy Yoeuy Need more info. What exactly are you trying to do. What trim do you have. Do you want to get rid of the current drl and use the fogs only as DRL light? Do you understand that DRL light is running at less than 12v. Do you want to fog to turn on with the drl. What country are you located. Too many variables to give you a straight answer or make a video.

    Where you pig connected to the neg brown wire. Do you know if any of the other wires are constant power?
    With my setup the OPT7 Aura , it has to wires for door assist. I put the neg to the brown wire and now I need a constant power. I would prefer to stay in that same area if possible. Do you think there's a constant wire in that same conduit ? Thanks !!!!!!

      Ok , new problem LOL .....Please help . I found the brown wire in the door sill , connect the spitter as shown.
      However it's backwards for me on my 2014 Sport model. When I open the door the white goes off & when I close the door the white light comes on. The next step I tried was connecting the wire to the dome light itself, same outcome. I tried both the yellow & the pink. The white light comes on with the door closed.
      Any thoughts? Thank you!

      It can be lame but can help if you open your door, so people don't rip your door off if you park on the side of the road. They also sell laser logo projectors ( that project onto the ground) that you can match with your car's make/model.
