Hi all, I did a search for this answer and found somewhat the answer but not clear enough so here goes. I changed the lamps to aftermarket HID and now the dash tells me that I need to check them. The car is a 2001 C240. Can someone tell me the proper way to wire relays with resistors to remedy this. Thanks.

Well, what kind of aftermarket HID's did you buy? And where? How much?

I don;t know if this pertains to aftermarket HID's but in order to use the stock ones, the dealer has to turn on that option in the ECU of your car.

The resitor/relay mod is for a 202. For a 203 you will need to go to your dealer and have them set your car for the use of xenon.

If a dealer tries to charge you or says you cant do it find a better dealer.
