Default My A6 Lights have gone disco crazy

Hi folks, I especially joined the forums to seek assistance for this. Hope you can help me.....

About 6 months ago, I had my A6 (57 plate) lights upgraded to after market Xenons. Top quality ones not the cheap imitations.

For a few weeks the front dipped light bulb warning light kept coming on. Simply turning lights or engine off/on, would bring the light bulb back to life. Replaced the bulb, but continued to happen.

As I could live with this pain, I thought best wait until the service.

Problem is that now the problem has spread and I cannot wait. Now, my rear right: tail light, brake light and indicator fails when driving. Turning off/on temporarily brings them to life, but eventually they fail again.

I dont know if its connected to the upgraded xenons, or a completly different issue. The fact its the rear effected, leads me to think different.

Any suggestions what it could be, please?

Ever Grateful
Amish

You are overloading your circuitry. Go back to the stock lights.

thanks guys!!

Hey Kevin- Its a 57 plate. 2.0TDI S Line.

Bob- Was hoping to go back to stock lights as a last resort. Wondering if any way I can make this work.

If I do have to go back to the stock lights, any idea how much I should pay someone to do it? I didnt fit the xenons and the person doesnt live close. Im useless at things like this, but dont want to go cap in hand to audi and pay a mini fortune.
