Hey guys, I just installed the HKS DLI and when I started everything was fine, the car was smooth and idle is great no problem what so ever, but when I checked the HKS box the LED light was not on, I checked the install manual and it says when you start the car the LED should glow, if it dosen't the car won't start!!!!!!!!

I did a search and found nothing about this.

So is the HKS not working or what???

 

check the ground. and yes the led does glow and gets brighter the more you lay into the throttle. if you think the install is correct and still not working the way its supposed to, return it. ive had mine for about 3 yrs and it still working.

 

I did check the ground, and everything seem fine, it's just won't glow

 

return it, better to have an HKS DLI that works right than 1 that u cant tell when its working or not

 

where do you have the ground installed to? I kept having that issue, i relocated the box and the ground. (the mounting point for the box should be a ground as well.)

 

where did you end up mounting it? and grounding it?

 

I mounted the box near the air intake filter, it's a bracket that was used for the stock air box, and the grounding point was next to it on the side, it has many grounding wires going to it so I used it there too.

I disconnected the HKS DLi now and but everything back turn the car on everhthing looked good no problem.

 

is it new or used

 

New, but I had it for like 2 months, because I was waiting for my other parts to get here, and now I installed it and this happen

 

can u call were u got it from so they can trouble shoot it

 

can u take a photo of ur installation

 

Damn I should have done that, but I removed the HKS DLi from the car now
am gonna try it on my friends evo and see what happens

 

ok let us know

 

Okay yesterday I installed the DLi again, but this time I switched the wires, the long wire is connected to the driver side coil and the short wire is connected to the passanger side, and when I started the car the ligh glows but it's a bit faint, so is that okay or not??
