I just hooked up my EDFC and when i start the car the control box makes a noise like the one when the door is open and it makes the clicking moise as if the blinker is on. Let me explain: I hooked up everything using wires that go to the hazard lights. Yellow to yellow, green to green and red to red(I used the red wire that has a blue stripe on it). There is another red wire that has a yellow stripe on it. Any help will be cool cause i suck at wiring and electrical.

You're about as brilliant as a shoe.

The color codes in the car do NOT match up to any existing aftermarket colors. Red/blue in the car is your illumination lead, yellow is the flasher relay input. You can't just stick wiring where ever you feel it should go.

Unhook everything you just did and take it to someone with a clue.

Wow relax i talked to someone on 240sxforums.com and that is where i had gotten my color information from. If you could be so kind and maybe tell me which ones i should use for All-time power, Acc power and lighting.

You believed someone on 240sxforums had a shred of intelligence. Your first mistake.

Behind the radio, orange/green for constant, blue for ignition, and red/blue for illumination.

Buy an FSM and begin researching so next time you don't burn something up.
