* O-Kay This is the poblem.* Some lights work some do not.
What does not work. Fog,high beams,directionals.* My thinking it might be the front ECU
since this car was in a accident. Grounding the pins in the fuse box (under hood)bring the* lights alive.
Etacs is communicating with the front ECU.* Which one to replace or just go to the dealer?
Any programming necessary.* *Someone at the dealer told me.
They usually replace both at the same time.
Wadda you Califonians think since this is a Californian Evo that made it to Jersey?
No help from the other clubs.

I see now why you pmed me. Find a good car electrical guy. MAybe something got damaged in your wiring harness. DId you try changing out the little black fuses in the fuse box? I know theres alot goin on in there. Check the owners manual too.

Damn near impossible to throw an answer out there. Have you looked at a wiring diagram? If so, when you are grounding pins and making the lights come on, what are you bypassing? Example, if those go to the front ECU then to ground, that would be the first place I looked

Doc, I bypassed the front ECU. It has transisters in it that are controlled by the Etacs.
Which one is bad ? :(
