Fitting HID'S on a 206cc

[boxermeg]

Hi all,

Just fitted a set of HID's on the girlfriends car, they are 35w 8000k. As soon as I switch them on all the dash warning lights come on, and a message reads ESR/ASR not functioning. If I turn them off and restart the car everything is fine, but as soon as I switch them on the same thing happens. I've fitted a Canbus canceller on but doesn't seem to make a difference.
Has anyone come across this???? How can I sort it?????? Or do I have to put original lights back in???

Thanks

From MOT from December 2011, the below changes will come into force, which will be very bad news for some.

HID lights – Specifically those aftermarket kits that give the very bright headlight beams. Any cars found with these kits will be an automatic MOT failure. Testers are able to easily spot the difference between HID kits, and manufacturer fitted Xenon’s. Easy to spot as Xenon cars have suspension level sensors, in car beam adjuster, and usually headlight washers.
