LAMP OUT is driving me Nucking Futs!!!! HID/RESISTOR
i have not yet installed the 2nd resistor and now being told i may need a 3rd resistor in the hanging headlamp harness thats not in use to prevent the lamp-out,, is this true or they trying to sell me another resistor,, i also checked the temp on the one that was installed for the lo/beam, 340. degrees, is this normal,??
thanks
thanks
If you have xenon then you need one resistor on each side (total of two) for the low beam (HID) wires.
If you have bi-xenon then you need two resistors on each side (total of four) for the HID low and HID high beam wires.

i got everything up and working with my hid. my question now is. i know they say that the resistor gets hot but 400 degrees, i checked it with my temp gun, i drilled and mounted on front cross member, is this temp. normal,???
The blue plug is the 9007 "D" shaped plug that plugs into your OEM head light wiring.
Yes, they will get hot as that what load resistors do. Thats also why they have those little heat sink fins on them. They are made ti dissipate heat. Securing them to the frame is a very good idea.
