You probably need capacitors in your HIDs. Our trucks require capacitors to make the HIDs work properly.

There are really a lot of threads on this and many proven answers in them. You shouldnt have a hard time finding your resolution.

Here is one I kept bookmarked but you will have to replace the ******* with the one word "Dodge talk"

the link would not work for me? so it is normal for the relay kit resistors t get hot? whats a good place to mount them, and finaly will a 55 watt kit fix the "computer" thinking a bulb is out/ stock watt bulbs use 55 watt right?

Right click on the link and choose Copy Shortcut. Then paste it in your addy bar and replace the ******* with the one work Dodge Talk.

Yes they will get very hot. Mine are mounted right behind the bulbs and so they get good air flow to kelp cool them. Wattage and resistance are two different things. So a 55w HID without the resistors will not fis the Lamp Out. You need to resistors to simulate the resistance caused normally by the filament in a halogen bulbs.
