headlight wont work

So my aftermarket projector head light wont work, only the halo thing adn blinker...

my other head light works fine...

I replace the bulbs, check the fuses and everything is okay... IT STILL WONT WORK...


Any ideas, tommorow I figure I will disconnect the light assembly and try it out on a power inverter, if it doesnt work its a bad assembly if it does then the stock wiring has a flaw I guess which means I need to find it, or hook up my head light to a switch =[

HELP lol any ideas?!

Re: headlight wont work

Try hooking up your headlights in reverse and see if the problem moves with th light or stays on the same side. Obviously you won't be able to "install" them, but you should be able to hold them there while you plug them in.

Re: headlight wont work

Didn't you have to rewire the headlights because the plugs are different than the stock plug? I know I had to, thats why Garrett said to wire them up backwards. You may have crossed two of the wires in the process. I know I had to play with them to figure it out correctly...

Actually I think Shpyder posted a wiring diagram on here for them at one point in time...

Re: headlight wont work

By reverse I mean try plugging the right headlight into the left side and vice versa, and see if the problem follows with the headlight or stays on the same side. Sorry I should have specified better.
