Default XenonDepot 6k HID install issues, HELP!

Well,

Just got the package from Steve at XD (Fast shipping, great CS)

Put it together real quick to see the light on the road.. only 1 light is working (Passenger side)

I've gone through these trouble shooting steps...


- Replaced both headlight fuses with 20 amp
- Checked Fuse in the Relay
- Have swapped both BALLASTS and BULBS on seperate occasions to the passenger side and the passenger side STILL lights up while the driver side DOES NOT (meaning I hope I've crossed out it being either the ballast or bulb)
- For some reason the XD HID kit only comes with 1 "Power" connecter that goes connected to the OEM socket.. It was connected on the passenger side, so I figured that was the problem and moved it over to the driver side.. STILL only the passenger side lights up.
- I've checked all grounds on several occasions, all seems fine..
- I've tried halogen bulbs on the driver side, and they work..

Not sure what else to do, at a complete loss and talk about a freaking TEASE.. I drove on the highway with 1 bulb and I was lighting up the road so nice

HELP!

That one power socket connecter only activates the relay which gives both ballasts power, which is why it only needs 1 connection. It has to be something in your wiring harness that is bad. If you can, take some pics of the wiring harness that it came with

Glad you got everything working.

You didnt need to change your stock fuse though as the kit already comes with an upgraded fuse.
