just got my ECU put in yesterday... solved all my problems.... so today i installed my boost gauge. while i had the gauge cluster cover off and everything hooked up i checked everything.. lights worked and so did boost gauge light and it dims and brightens with the other gauges... head lights popped up and down everything was fine.... i salderd the wires and wrapped the in electrical tape.... put everything back together and the head lights popped up when i turned them on, and now they wont go down..

im lost because i only tapped into the wire for the gauge lights...didnt mess with anything else.. does anybody know what this could be?..... also the right window took like five tries to go up...(never done that before) i checked every fuse the car has and they are all good, my integra was the kinda car where everytime you fixed something something else broke right after.... please dont let this be another problem car:ohdamn:
 
Double check to make sure all the plugs are properly plugged in. One of the plugs might have come loose in the process. Also when you push switch to put the headlights down it should make a clicking noise. If it doesn't the switch is more than likely bad.

I'm not sure what you mean about your window taking 5 tries to go up. Does it go crooked on it's way up? If so it could be coming off the track. Pop the door panel off and a look see.

And I hate to break this too you but as much as I love DSM's they are a pain in the ass.
 
There is actually 2 buttons on the bezel. 1 that works the lights and 1 that just raises the flip ups for cleaning of the lenses. Make sure the switch isn't sticking or broken and double check all the connections.
