Troubleshooting General

• Low-Beams Flickering:

  • Ensure connectors are securely plugged in.

• Establish if the Jeep is US or Export (Canadian):

  • If Export (Canadian): For compliance, all Canadian vehicles must have factory DRLs. To ensure this headlight works properly, the DRLs need to be disabled. Here are some options on how to proceed:

    • Turn DRL OFF in U-Connect ONLY APPLICABLE FOR CUSTOMERS IN THE US WITH CANADIAN JEEP

    • Cover the daylight sensor on the dash - This tricks the Jeep into staying in night mode - Low Beams on at full power

    • Purchase a Tazer or JSCAN (programmer) to disable DRL.

  • NOTE: Reassure that with the DRL disabled, the vehicle is still in compliance as long as the DRL Halo is connected.

• DRL Halo Not Powering On:

  • Ensure DRL cables are plugged in correctly on both sides (Arrow to Arrow).

  • Ensure Add-A-Fuse connector is properly crimped to the wire end of the DRL harness, plugged into the correct fuse position, & both fuse slots are occupied.

  • Ensure DRL Harness is grounded properly.

• Concerns About Headlight Halo Color:

  • The light hue you see is perfectly normal. All of the Oculus lights from every production run have been produced with the exact same LEDs with the exact same CCT. The DRL diffuser optics may enhance some color spectrums in certain settings or environments (dim light, bright light, outdoors, indoors, etc), but the LEDs themselves and the light produced are pure white; 5500K CCT to be exact. If you are using images from our website to do a color comparison, please note the camera Kelvin settings adjust drastically between different environments.

• Blue or Purple Cut Off Line:

  • The blue-purple type of color that you're seeing is called a color flicker. This detail is actually a desirable aesthetic feature of projector lights. This thin band of colorful light across the top of the beam's cutoff line enhances the visual appeal as the vehicle passes. This is normal and does not affect the safety and performance of the light. Please let us know if we can assist with anything else.

  

• "bumps" in the cutoff line or it is "uneven" - This is normal and is a safety feature of the lights called a step in the cutoff line.

  This is normal, and it is called a “step” that bumps the beam down slightly on the driver’s side to avoid blinding other drivers. The Oculus cutoff was expertly designed according to DOT guidelines and as a desirable feature of any light for safety and aesthetic reasons; however, all lights have this line to some extent for functionality. As long as the lights are adjusted to have a three-step line, this is correct alignment. Please let me know if I can assist with anything else.

  To be road legal in the US – Projector headlight cut offs must step down from RH to LH side for oncoming traffic. Due to this, the combined cut-off when both headlights are adjusted properly creates a 3-step line from RH to LH.

  • 

Condensation or misting concerns.

• No troubleshooting needed. Surface condensation on the inside of the lenses is normal as differing temperatures inside vs outside will cause any moist air trapped inside to evaporate. There are vents on the back of each headlight that will allow this to dissipate over time.

• Example of what the appearance of condensation looks like:

Road-Wear

• reflection of the light on the lens which becomes more visible when the headlight accrues road ware.

• This is not covered under warranty as it is not a manufacturer defect

• See the photo below for the road wear on our JL we have here
  

Issue: cigarette lighter doesn't work when you've got the DRL cable connected.

Here's what's happening: If you follow the instructions in the video and use the F52 fuse, your front cigarette lighter is going to stop working. But no worries, you've got a couple of alternatives:

• Use the F43 Fuse: If you want to keep your front cigarette lighter active, simply use the F43 fuse.

• Try the F45 Fuse (Ignition): Another option is to use the F45 fuse, which is connected to the ignition system.

• All Oculus- Adjustment concerns 

• It's a necessary step to check & re-aim any headlights when replaced. Here's step by step instructions on how to aim the Oculus lights:

• Park the Jeep 15-20ft. away from a wall on a flat surface

• Measure from the ground to the center of each headlight

• Mark the same height on the wall with tape

• Locate the adjuster bolt on the back of each headlight covered by a rubber cap

• Aim the cutoff lines to meet the marked spots on the wall using the supplied allen tool.
