HID Installation Problem...a little help, anyone??

Post by Richy »

Hello guys

just bought a set of "Bellon" HID off ebay...and received yesterday..went straight to install them...and PROBLEM :twisted:

neither side of the lights work....have just sent an email to the seller asking...but may be i could get some help here..

i am suspecting 1.defect kit, or 2.not enough power from the factory Headlight HB4 connector (i thought at least one of the bulb would work if defect ballast or bulb)..i have tried swapping wires and bulbs to the other sides but nothing happens.

please anyone...any advice?? :?

Thanks

we all bought kits from a group buy a number of months ago -

few of us had problems when the plugs were not fitted 'very tight' e.g. really pushed in... so maybe check that,

secondly make sure you are matching the wires to the correct terminals e.g. positive to positive etc.

i will double check that tomorrow....but all plugs seem to be one way (with bits sticking out on one side, so u can plug it the other way around)

Is the Ballast wired in all fine? Making any whining noises?
