Aftermarket HID stuck on high beam
Hey everyone,
So i went and purchased some HID's. My first bad choice was getting them on Ebay prob but they seemed to work fine at first. Then i started noticing people flashing there lights at me. So it looks like they are stuck on the highbeam setting. They are a Bi-xenon kit so it should do both. Could it be a problem with the relay? I would appreciate any help so i can stop blinding people at night. Thanks

i have the same headlights as you. I have 9007-2 type bulbs which have 1 halogen and 1 Xenon bulb so that you can keep your highbeams.
when i turn my headlights on, its the low beam (halogen) then i have to flick my highbeam function to power the HIDs on.
i love em!..aha..most people here dont even bother because everyone in NYC has HIDs.

I only have mine hooked up to my lows, and when the lights are on and I flash my brights, they turn off, but when the lights are off and I click it to where the highs would be on, they come on.

I have just one bulb for each headlight and i have tried pushing the bulb in to see if it changes but it stays just as bright. Only thing i can think of is that the relay is bad. but thats just a guess im not sure if that has anything to do with the high and low beams
Oh and Lucas03ES what you have is just low beams. I had a pair of those too and switched them out for bi-zenon

If you have the regular stock halogen assembly, then pretty much no matter what you do they will glare at oncoming traffic. A projector headlight assembly will not only make your HIDs look better, IMO, but they will drastically reduce glare to oncoming traffic.

same problem
i had that same exacr problem when i first got my bi xenon kit. the problem is the realat. where it plugs into your dtock harness theres 3 pins and none of them are right i ripped the pins outa the plug on the relay and put them in the stock harness in the right order. the brown needs to be in the middle and the other 2 i just played around with till the high beams were in the right location simple fix.
