I believe this could work - but it could make it worse if say there's a higher resistance in the path to the offside headlight unit as current to that unit would flow via the nearside unit and then on through your thin wire to the offside one triggering autocheck. Better still either do the pin k mod or link the headlamp output pins on the autocheck relay to equalise currents.
Certainly you won't affect the rear autocheck as they as seperate relays.
In my opinion lots of the problems with HIDs and autocheck is due to the obsession with earthing them that is the oft recommended practice on this forum. This new earthing then creates unbalanced current flows through the autocheck relay, triggering warnings. My HID kit came with a loom that took both supply and earth from the original H1 bulb connector. I made no other earth connection and have never had an autocheck warning.

) so when i took bumper off the other day to sort out another problem i made some better earthing points for all the ballasts to see if this would help and suprise surprise i get an autocheck warning all the time now
