You may have also burnt the lamp fuse or relay when you jumped. Was the headlight in the on or auto positon? That may have done it. I shut off all accessories when jumping the car....including even dome lights.

Bill Kay in Downer's Grove. They replaced my ECU due to the high pitch whining sound. No questions, no arguements...just a quick listen, 'yep', and then I had it swapped within a week. For both visits, they said "when would you like to come in?" and gave me the exact time I wanted.

The other Chicagoland dealerships wanted me to leave my car for diagnosis, pay for my own rental, and claimed they were too busy to accommodate most times I requested.

I hope it was only a weak battery.

Since he was able to start the car I don't think it was the IPDM. He probably blew the fuse to the ballast or relay.

Possibly the OP didn't boost his car properly and has caused other damage as a result?

definitionxmk 02-05-2011 09:09 AM

It's weird for that to just happen... oh well

AllForTheCash 02-05-2011 09:41 AM

Yeah this is all just bad luck :mad: hopefully it all works out!

What a pain OP. Is this forcing you to ride the ferry from LI to Bridgeport everyday to check on your Z?

I have a friends living in Fairfield, CT, so I am living with them for now, and commuting to work in NYC from CT.
