I believe I am screwedSComp23 02-19-2005, 02:25 AM Today, I hooked up an HID ballast to my stock OEM wiring harness, and now I think I am screwed. My high beam on that side only doesn't work, and when I put in a regular halogen on the low beam, it barely lights up at all. I am since changed to a relay obviously to prevent further damage, but what do you think I ruined, and how do I fix it? Thanks a lot! blazerboy2005 02-20-2005, 12:18 AM if its on the driver side wiggle the wires in the plug ive known them to short. good luck rlith 02-20-2005, 06:36 AM Usually when you get that it's a bad/loose ground. Secondly how did you wire up the ballast for the hid's? Did you check the ground on the ballast and the igniter? SComp23 02-20-2005, 11:47 AM I stupidly plugged it straight into my OEM harness and probably ended up frying it. I have since switched over to a relay harness and everything is ok, except for the fact that my passenger side high beam won't work. rlith 02-20-2005, 03:35 PM Are you using true hid? (W/ igniter and ballast) or imitation HID? that plug directly to the bulb? SComp23 02-20-2005, 09:12 PM True OEM HID Ballasts, bulbs, and projectors rlith 02-20-2005, 09:14 PM Check your grounds on the core support. SComp23 02-20-2005, 09:31 PM I have no idea what that means, or even where the core support is located. rlith 02-20-2005, 10:23 PM The core support is your entire front body support, the radiator core is bolted to it, hence the name Core support SComp23 02-20-2005, 10:30 PM Its weird, because on the passenger headlight, wires lead off of it and plug into a circular shaped object on the passenger side front quarter panel, and other wires go all the way across the front of there the radiator is, so I find it weird that only the passenger side isn't working, while the drivers side works perfectly. Because of this I had to use that harness as my trigger for the relay, which I guess isn't a big deal it was just a pain in the ass to get all the wiring to that side and make it look clean. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
