Default HID problem. High bream not working?

Hi everyone.
A few days ago i brought some HID for my 2007 Civic SI from Ebay. Yea i know cheap stuff, but when i put the HID in the low bream seem to work, but it's dims my gauge (10 k was what i got). Plus the other issue was the high bream didn't work. I plug everything correctly, but still didn't work. Please help. Thanks

Most hid kits dont have high beams, unless you get the more expensive dual beam ones.

check the bulbs, ifyou got high beam bulbs with it make sure they are not blown out. also 10k seems a little too much. I got the 8k an they are perfect. to high beams tho. make sure theres no short in the wires as well bcause that will give you other electrical problems later on.

I got 10k because i wanted that deep blue look to it. I mean Low bream is nice, but i don't know why the high bream. There wasn't a short anywhere. It was just a plug and play progress. Well thanks. I have to look again at the wire.
