Default HEADLIGHT PROBLEM PLEASE HELP !

hey guys i have a bit of a problem i have a 98 ek single cam. i just put H.I.D.s on it little bit over a month ago .. last night they were working fine this morning my passenger side didn't turn on. the hids were installed correctly so that's not the problem than i took the hids off hole kit* and gave it positive and negative from the battery and they turned on fine. so now the problem i think is on the positive and negative adapter it had on i cutt it off and try to wire them up wire to wire and still did not work ???? what can i do ? ???

Did you check ground for the side that does not work and make sure it did not come loose?

Not understanding really what you said. I would not resplice the stuff together. Where did you cut the Positive wire at? And where do you have them grounded at?

Any pictures of this would help tremendously.

The correct way? Solder the connections and put heat shrink tube over them. Otherwise just get butt connectors and crimp them together, if this method get the connectors with heat shrink on them to seal moisture. Again I do not recommend this way.
