HID install, 1 headlight not working 96 civic.
Prior to install, the passenger side headlight seemed a bit dim. After install, the passenger side headlight doesn't even work. The driver side is fine. I switched bulbs and ballasts to make sure it just wasn't bad hardware. But everything checked out fine. The 3 prong connector from the wire harness that connects to that passenger side headlight isn't stock though, it's a cheapy looking aftermarket plug. Maybe that's the problem?

The problem turned out to be the aftermarket plug. I went to a junkyard and clipped an oem plug, installed it and the HID worked fine.
