  • is it a problem with my bulb? they used to do low and high beam now only low beam i had to change the fuse two times. now no high bram

  • @aubrey11full This definitely sounds like a ballast issue. You might need to replace your existing ballast with a new one. For now, I recommend trying the bulbs with the ballasts from the low beams, to see if they turn on that way, they can confirm if it is the ballasts.

  • i need help i bought a kit on ebay for my 04 explorer and plug it in , didn't turn on, i plug it in on my 04 tahoe and it did work, how do i fix the problem please help

  • @monk3y0809 This would be solved by following the polarity instructions in the video..

  • I have a flicker problem what is needing to be done? I have an 98 eclipse with an ebay HID kit. The hid didn't shut off they just have a flicker. 1 way worse than the other.

  • @BigBob690169 This would be solved using capacitors. they should also confirm that they do not have DRL (Daytime Running Lights), and if they do, disable the DRL, as that can cause the flickering issues.

  • hey I bought a hid kit and they work perfect, but when I put the high lights and return to the low ones one of the lights shuts off . any answers thank you !!!!!!

  • Wait, you have a lighting company but you endorse shitty ballasts and you don't even know how to properly disconnect a battery?? WOW your a fucking tool. I really hope somebody sets your shop on fire. Stop selling glare kits and helping other retards install themfor the fucking love of god. If somebody can't figure out how to install HIDs they don't deserve help.

  • I have a 99 eclipse. One HID bulb is perfect, never even flickers, the other one flickered, and went on and off when i hit bumps, now i hit a big bump and it's off completely. Any help?

  • pontiac g5 08 i had hids installed and i took them out so i could pass state inspection and they did work then when i went to put them back in one will work but the other wont ... the bulb is good, install did not change at all... so im thinkin the relay box went bad otherwise i have no idea i would like some help if you know whats going on and i have never had a flicker prob so i dont think its the ballast

  • I have a Xentec 6k Kit with a relay harness and only one of headlights will ignite and stay on. However i can get them both to work by turning the ignition on, turning the lights on till they warm up then start the car. I was under the impression installing a harness would solves all this but it only worked for 1 day

  • YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I must be one of those 9 out of 10. Reversing polarity fixed it! low beams work now,,THX Great post!

  • do we need capasiters or ireing harness

  • I installed fog light hids on a 05 dodge ram. when we turn on the lights the one foglight does not light up, but when i disconnect the at the stock harness and plug back in the light comes on again until we shut them off. What could be causing this to happen?

  • My dad always said never buy cheap stuff
