I gathered that seeing as it comes straight out of the relay box I think it is...
And I'm assuming that the black plug goes in there... I don't understand why they still work though??


And what's that last pink plug??

Maybe you don't have hid headlights. Do your headlights have a chrome strip on the front side corner near the grille.
The pink wire is hid control from the ballast the black maybe for high beam hid.

Are the brown and pink plugs connected to the silver box and the black into your wiring loom?

Matt that is an aftermarket HID kit for fogs / high beam, looks to be one of Leo's.
He has an MY09 spec.B so he has to have HID low beams from the factory.

That particular HID kit bypasses the stock system and draws power from the battery, so a lot couple of plugs will be unused (and should be taped up)

Anyway back to the problem..

I come bearing more info.. I changed the horn fuse (15) out with the rear demister fuse (25) and worked fine?? Put the 15 back in and still works??

This horn hasn't worked for weeks, and when I took the 15 horn fuse out earlier, inspected and then put back in it still didnt work????

*EDIT* could this be a possible grounding issue??



Also on a side not the engine didnt turn on because "when the bat is disconnected, it needs few secs for the throttle to lean home."

Hey Nick

i think i might know what the problem is ....

remember few weeks ago you can to get your fog light checked as they weren't working ..... and you told me you got your front bar repaired ? and the problem was the panel beatet pulled the wire out from the relay.

and looks like they didn't even plug in your high beam ..

my guess is they might not put everything back properly (not sure why they want to touch the horn to repair the front bar ..

as this is where the horns are located in Gen 4..(below driver side headlight).

Anyway if you coming to Sydney any time soon drop by and i'll take a look for you and also check your lights are plug in right.
