Headlight problem!! HELP!!!

Ok so i install my LED bulbs in my gauge cluster today and just went out to check em out and found there was a problem with my HID/headlight

Check out tthe pic and description. If i had to guess, its a fuse (if the headlights DO hav a fuse?) or the wire of the driver side is bad???

This is wen i turn on my headlights low beam. My HIDs on the passanger side is work but the driver isnt. Plus the high beam lights on are but they are not very bright...it looks as the highbeam are dimmed.


This is when i turned on my highbeam. The HIDs on the passanger is still workin and the highbeam on the passenger side turned from dim to very bright (how it is suppose to be we high beam is on).....BUT the on the driver side, the dimmed high beam turned off.



I unplugged the passanger side HIDs. this is a pic with wen only low beam was on.



This is the pic where the high beam

You have a problem with the hid on the drivers side. In short, its blown you'll have to replace it. Also yes there is a fuse for the headlight, it is in the engine bay fuse block. 15 amp IIRC.

i went to check the fuse box. the fuse on the driver side headlight was bad. i put a spare one in and then it went bad again.

????????

Make sure car is turned off and lights are off. Take off the hid-kit on both sides. Check/Replace the fuse. Theres 1 fuse for both headlights. They are either 15A or 20A. After you replace the fuse(s) check the relay for the headlights(also in the engine bay fuse box).

Hook up your lights without the hidkit and test, the problem should go away.


I had a very similar issue when my driver side ballast went bad. The car didn't seem to like running one burned ballast and one working one.

fixed...now i gotta go buy a new HID bulb. the bulb was causing the fuse to go back.

where can i get a HID bulb? I got my HID kit on ebay..its one of those plug and play for like 30 bucks lol. i just wanted something different

you could try ddm? a bulb causing fuse to blow? that's new.. are you sure its not wiring or because the ballast is drawing too much amps? it is ebay hids by the way.. Do you have a relay?
