    DMM HID Install problem

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Im in the middle of installing a DDM HID kit. For some reason the right headlight isn't working. I've tried putting the bulb in the other ballast and it works and i've tried using the ballast on the other side and it works fine aswell. so bulbs and ballast are both working. they just dont want to turn on. could this be a ground problem on the right harness? all other lights in the housing are working fine.
    Help me please.

    Did you try switching the wires that hook to the headlight housing itself... there are two red wires that come out of the stock headlight housing that you have to hook into try switching the way you hooked them up

    also hook up relay to those HID if they are aftermarket , if you don't you will find later ballast problems
