How about we have him diagram or list out all of his connections?

List out where each of your connections are coming from and going to... then we can start narrowing down some potential causes and solutions.

yeah cause it still sounds like the resistors are wired in wrong Locations

Ok i think i did it correctly. I watched a lot of pics and vidz to make sure that im ok. I connect 1 side of the resistor to the low beam and the other side to the ground on the oem wiring. I have sold them in place and added heatshrink. I start my truck and touch the resistor and they come hot, sk i think they work. Maybe i missed something. Those hid gonna make me crazy...

Ok On Your OEM Wiring Harness At The Headlight Connector the ground is the center wire Should be Black W/Blue Stripe on left side headlight connector is that the wire that one end of resistor is tied too?
I ask this because diagram you previously loaded the link is not loading to see what you looked at

You might be over loading the ground by grounding it back into the OEM harness....

Try grounding the load resistors to the chassis and see if that works out a little better....?

okay guys, i just got my projectors in for my 2006 dodge. after installing h1 hid kit for only lows. i found out i have a flickering problem maybe every 30 secs or so. what do i need to fix this? my fog light hids work perfect no relay harness at all. My low beam h1 hids in my projectors are on a relay harness. i have 2 resistors 50w *8 wondering if these need to be used to stop flickering or not? please help here is some pics.
(my resistors)

(using only red & blue plugs for my Hids)

Yes driving lights are not can bus and are already relayed through fuse panel but the headlight how ever are can bus and yes since you already have headlights on Relay you need to tie the resistors one between headlight ground and low beam !2v each wire from the one resistor one to the ground the other too low beam 12vdc+ do this on both headlight connectors this will eliminate the Flickering Issue your having now

where do i hook the resistors up at? i am using my oem plug on one side to trigger relay. Do i connect resistors to the same place when i tapped my running lights before the factory oem plug.

Also halogens was originally in the projectors i am not using the low beam wires anymore. i have spliced them and put my hids in. but i am wondering where do i install resistors like i said i am on a relay harness.
