Make sure that the connection that goes into your factory headlight harness is in all the way. If that still doesn't work, sometimes you have to put it in backwards. Also just make sure you put the plugs that go into the ballast the correct way. Also, check to see if you already blew a fuse.

Your car is saying "noooo please don't install glare bombs inside my headlights"

but really, did you connect them up and check their operation before actually installing and mounting everything and running all the wiring?

Did the kit come with a harness and relays that connect to the car battery, with the factory headlight switch switching the relays?

9006 factory plugs are wired reverse (from what I've seen) from the "standard" 9006 hid ballast plugs...
