Dim headlight

[mayito]

I was trying to install some HID's on my gf's car. I installed the passenger side and see if it worked, it did, so i disconnected it to install it correctly. After I did this, it did not want to turn on again. I tried the drivers side with the HID and it worked. So I decided to just put back the stock lights but when I turned on the lights the passengers side was dim. I checked all grounds, fuses, relays and even replaced the headlight connector. Any ideas what this could be? I also checked for power, on the passenger side it had power, but to only 2 connections in the socket. While the drivers side had power to all 3 connections in the socket.(BTW, passenger wires were 1 pink, 1 orange, and 1 blue. The orange one did not have power. The drivers side wires were 1 pink, and 2 blue)

check the socket pins on the bulb. make sure their isn't any corrosion on them... this could cause the same problem. If that's not the problem then you may have to do some back tracking of wiring to make sure the HID's didn't burn a wire someplace.

I would agree with poochin the PCM/ECU.

What year model is this exactly ????
