EML on after fitting HIDs

Had a few problems with the car yesterday. As some of you know, Gemmas pregnant, well the past week she hasnt been too great. She was in hospital thurs nite to Fri morning. On Saturday evening she was heading home and started to feel unwell again and was told to head straight to the hospital again. I was following her, but the car started playing up.

When I started the car, it turned over very slowly, but not like in a dead battery kinda way. Then the EML came on although I noticed no difference when driving.

Then, after about 10 miles, I could feel the brakes pulling, I know I need new rear calipers as they have been sticking. Well after the 10 miles or so, the O/SR disc was glowing red!

I let it cool and managed to free off the caliper and its been ok for the 100+ miles since.

The EML stayed on untill this afternoon and I have tried a few times and all is ok now, strange.

I have never seen the EML come on before and the only thing I can think of thats different was that I fitted my HIDs yesterday, surely this cant effect the EML though?

Thankfully, Gemma got out hospital this afternoon and shes ok now.
