HID problem - McGill2009 - 4:th-Oct-2016

So I installed a set of HIDs this evening and was faced with this.
Kit was bought from Lush Lighting 5,000k 35w


Anyone know why they would be doing this?

Cheers

Niall

Could be the ballasts.

Do HID ballasts need to be grounded at all?

dont think so, i put them in my vectra without issue, the only thing i had to do was tell the car i was using xenon lamps so it didnt error with the canbus system,  did you buy canbus error free hid set?

can we have a link to what you got from him as you will need canbus cancellers with the kit

Sorry not been on here recently so only seeing replies now

I would send them back looks like others have left bad feedback also
i used the terminator hid kit from hids direct and had no problems with them at all


RE: HID problem - McGill2009 - 16:th-Oct-2016

Ive since had a kit from Xenons R Us on ebay and they work 100%, no check bulb errors and no flickering

glad you got it sorted out
