did you disable the DRL? if i'm not mistaken the 2000+ cavaliers only use one headlight bulb. if this is the case, then the system is telling you your high beams are out (missing, in your case.)



car audio noob since 1984.

^^ that

You have to disable the DRLs for the HID kit. My car also made that noise your talking about before I disabled them

its not a big deal it flicks a few times and then it just stays lit. ive had for two years now no issues. u can also solve this by turning the lights on before u take outta park(auto) drop the ebrake (stick). only then is when u should hear that drl try. but just turn the lights on it wount do it then. mine dont.

There is a sticky on this, with instructions for each gen. That's what I used to disable mine, took 5 minutes.
