2010 Sebring Flickering HID problem

[Gsereb]

I recently installed HID's on my new 2010 Sebring Convertible and I am having endless troubles with the new lamps flickering on and off. When the engine is off the lights are fine but when the engine is on they start to flicker at random intervals which sometimes causes the instrument panel lights to flicker as well?! I was reading other articles with similar problems and was wondering if one of those anti-flicker kits would help? And does it have anyrhung to do with the DRL's even though my HID's are not on the same light as the DRL's because the DRL's are the high beams and the HID's are installed on the low beams. Let me know!

Your 35watt HIDs are telling your ECM that it's not getting the 55watts the OEM bulbs require, so it is flashing the ground to check the system. A resistor kit should help.

Hey mike,

I installed the resistor kit but still if i turn the car on and then turn the headlights on the dash lights and headlights flicker multiple times and my car has stalled once or twice already. Occasionly when Im driving woth them on they will flicker once quickly so i looks like im flashing my headlights. The dealership swore nothing was wrong but I doubt they checked properly. Any other suggestions?
