ok so i got my HID conversion kit in. my headlight plug has 3 prongs and my HID hit has 2 prongs well the way the kit is, you hook up your headlight plug to the balast buton that plug you have to put 2 wires in the female end and its got a spot for three. the stock wire colors are red and 2 pruples and one purple has a red stripe so i hooked the red to the red and the black to the middle purple and it flickered and cut off. so i unpluged the black and hooked it to the other purple and it wouldn't even come on. so botoom line is i can get it to flicker but not come on and stay on. does anyone know what i need to do?

 

bump!!!!

 

Use a relay. Your headlight circuit cannot safely supply the initial surge current.

 

ok so i just hook it up the way it was when it flickered?

 

Well yeah...

It must be only a low beam kit because low high kits come with relay harnesses.

 

ok will just low beams be bright enough to not have the high beem?

 

Yeah, but you wont be able to flash anymore.

 

ok next question would i be better off like that with just low beams ir send the kit back?

 

You need something like this:

It is a thicker set of wires for your headlights and has a built in relay. This helps handle to large initial demand for power from the HID ignitor. Without one of these harnesses you run the risk of melting your stock wiring.

 

so that one relay will run both of my ballasts? and from there its all plug and play?
