did you burn up a flasher relay? i am not really sure why or how you did what you did...

good luck tho...

if the wiring "work" you did isn't ultra obvious, you are sure it's back to the way it was previously, and the lights you tried to add are not on the car, you might be able to take it in to the dealership and get it looked at under warranty...

you have to 100% make sure the wiring is back to stock though.

i think it has to do with how a lot of stuff in the new civics work on resistance instead of just 12v. i did a light sensor to turn on the headlights automaticly at night and it didnt work right. not to mention it was supposed to turn on the lights when you turn the wipers on and i think it burnt out the high wipers. off to the dealership it goes and im sure they will tell me its my fault even though im an installer and know what im doing.

Well, that could be, because the car already has the lights on anyway. DRLs
