MESO Puddle Light build

those are the connectors I received as well, not sure why you are saying they are wrong? I dry fit everything together just fine.

 

Here is the only reply I received in regard to the wires.

 

Does he normally announce what month for the next drop or just wait for the email and hope your not working nightshift so you can get some?

 

Maybe someone can enlighten a poor fool. I'm reading page by page, I'm at 128. Looking for answers about these cables. I'm now getting conflicting answers about if I have the correct wires from the meso instagram(not rightwires) and customers(i got the right stuff).lol I'm just going to install and see what happenes..lol

 

Photoguy190, I may totally be off base but with zero help from the source I'm left to guess.lol have you tried or do you know where he was posting about the "updated" wires??



ETA: I'm still searching the thread for an answer, hopefully will come across something.

 

There are wires that you don’t have picture that come with the kit. Lay everything out that you got and let us see. I’m pretty sure in your Instagram communication he though the long wires are missing as they are not pictured.

Dang photoguy33, I think you hit the nail on the head! I literally just found it and was on my way to say something. Yes, that is definitely the miss communication. He must have thought as you said about the "missing wires".

Thank you guys sssooo ssoooo much! I really appreciate the help with this!

 

Here is a useful tip! There are arrows above the quote button for long threads you can use them to jump between 1 individuals post in this case Meso. So you can go to one of their post click those arrows and jump to the next time they post. Super helpful if you wanna catch up on a meso thread. Start at the beginning the skip to only his post! Makes it much more manageable. Granted you might miss good info from other members but it’s a fast way to get a good understand.

 

May not want to do this mod three days before vacation!!

LoL

Received the puddles, laid everything out, to include some descent sound deadening material. Finished that part early am and took a break before puddles. Have the directions on tablet along with a couple of the you tube videos. Fairly straight forward, though as most know the panels and especially the door boot can be a little cumbersome. Everything snaps together so I hooked battery back up.

One light stays on no matter the dome light setting and the other works when door is opened and goes off immediately when door is closed instead of when dome fades. On remote open they do not come on, though front and rear markers do as usual.

I rechecked plugs etc and all snug and tight. Took and switched the power runs on the pillar y connector to see if a possible fault there. This indeed causes the other side to stay on and the second light to act as first mentioned.

I tested one end of the Y connector on the pillar after unplugging both power runs to the two mirrors.
That caused the dome light to go dark and obviously blew a fuse.

The frustrating part is I may have to button entire thing up just to try this again unless some ideas on troubleshooting this evening. One guess is the Y connector at the driver side pillar is bad, which means throwing it back together again anyway. Oh, and no other power anomalies, checked all the controls etc, to include temporary connection of door controls.

Sure its a relatively simple fix.

 

Thank you for this

 

I’m doing speakers at the same time as well. I’m going with Kicker 46CSC6934‘s up front and

$85 Kicker 46CSC674 CS-Series CSC67 6.75" (165mm) Coaxial Speakers, 4-Ohm (Pair)

Kicker 46CSC674‘s in the back. I decided to stick with Kicker, as I’ve already got the Kicker Subaru tweeters in the dash.

 

Love it when people find out about that. I tell as many people as I can about that.

 

Dude lay everything out on a table. You should be able to plug everything together other than the big white T connector.

 

Lutrev
Are you taking about the plug in the door for the window switches?

 

I think he's talking about the kick panels. Probably pulled some wires out while running the wire through the grommet

 

Yep, I'm gonna try and get and early start on my install in the morning. I figure I will find out fairly quick what's what. I have faith that everything is OK though. I've watched the install video 5 times and went through the Installation Guide on the Meso site a couple of times.

 

No, the a pillar plug

 

I ordered this a week ago, Installed it tonight and I am having the same issue, The Driver side light is normal and the passenger light will not turn off.
