3. Configurazione e installazione
Installation of the Morimoto Sealed5 LED Headlights is designed to be plug-and-play for most compatible vehicles. Professional installation is recommended for optimal performance and safety.
3.1 Lista di controllo pre-installazione:
- Assicurarsi che l'accensione del veicolo sia spenta e che la batteria sia scollegata.
- Verify the headlight size (5x7 inch) matches your vehicle's existing headlight housing.
- Gather necessary tools (e.g., screwdrivers, wrenches, wire strippers/crimpers if custom wiring is needed for DRL/switchback functions).
3.2 Passaggi di installazione:
- Carefully remove the existing headlight assembly from your vehicle. Refer to your vehicle's service manual for specific instructions.
- Disconnect the electrical connector from the old headlight.
- Connect the Morimoto Sealed5 LED Headlight to the vehicle's existing headlight harness. The plug-and-play design should allow for direct connection.
- For the DRL and switchback functions, connect the additional wires as follows:
- DRL Wire: Connect to a switched 12V power source that is active when the vehicle is on (e.g., fuse box, accessory wire).
- Cavo del segnale di svolta: Connect to the vehicle's positive turn signal wire for the switchback function.
- Carefully mount the new Morimoto Sealed5 LED Headlight into the vehicle's headlight housing. Ensure it is securely fastened.
- Ricollegare la batteria del veicolo.
- Test all headlight functions: low beam, high beam, DRLs, and turn signals (switchback).
- Perform headlight aiming adjustment according to local regulations and best practices to ensure proper beam pattern and avoid blinding oncoming traffic.

4. Istruzioni per l'uso
The Morimoto Sealed5 LED Headlights operate in conjunction with your vehicle's existing headlight controls. The integrated DRL and switchback turn signal functions activate automatically based on wiring connections.
4.1 Headlight Functions:
- Fascio anabbagliante: Activates when your vehicle's low beam headlights are turned on. Provides a broad, even light distribution for general driving.
- Abbagliante: Activates when your vehicle's high beam headlights are turned on. Provides maximum light output for extended visibility.
- Luci diurne (DRL): The integrated DRLs illuminate when the vehicle is running and the DRL wire is connected to a switched 12V source. These provide enhanced daytime visibility.
- Switchback Turn Signals: When the turn signal is activated, the DRLs on the corresponding side will switch from white to amber and flash, then return to white DRL mode when the turn signal is disengaged.

6. Risoluzione Dei Problemi
This section addresses common issues that may arise during the use of your Morimoto Sealed5 LED Headlights.
| Problema | Possibile causa | Soluzione |
|---|---|---|
| Headlight not illuminating. | Collegamento allentato, fusibile bruciato, cablaggio errato. | Check all electrical connections. Inspect vehicle's headlight fuse. Verify wiring against installation instructions. |
| Flickering or intermittent operation. | Insufficient power, loose connection, vehicle electrical system incompatibility. | Ensure stable 12V power supply. Re-secure connections. While designed to be error-free, some vehicles may require additional resistors (not typically needed for this model). Consult a professional if issue persists. |
| DRLs or Switchback not working. | Incorrect DRL/turn signal wire connection, no power to DRL wire. | Verify DRL wire is connected to a switched 12V source. Ensure turn signal wire is connected to the correct positive signal wire. |
| Condensation inside lens. | Temperature changes, minor seal breach. | Small amounts of condensation are normal and should dissipate. If excessive or persistent, inspect seals for damage. |
