So I finally get my HIDs from ZZPs woot sale. I decided to install them tonight. I work on the passanger side first. Install the low and high beam bulbs and ballast. Fire them up and nothing. So I bring them back inside and check the wiring. Go back outside and try again. This time the lows dont fire on, but the highs do. Progress.
I go back inside and swap the ballast on the lows. Back outside and try again. SUCCESS!! Both fire up. Mount everything and put the lights back in. Still work. Sweetness. Onto the driver side.
Bring that one in and hook everything up. Go outside and test them. Low doesnt come on but the high does. Ok. Come back inside and check the wiring on the low. Back outside and it still doesnt fire. Keep in mind this is the same ballast that I swapped from the passanger side. Ok. Ill swap the ballast from the high beams since I know it works. Swap the ballasts and guess what?? NEITHER work. Checked the wiring 2 times and still nothing. Swap it back to what it originally was and back to the same situation. Low didnt work but the high did.
So now I have one low HID, one low hallogen, and 2 high HIDs. One 9006 bulb and one ballast DOA. I cant believe it.
Im gonna go punch a fetus in the genital area now.
