HID Issues

[Nytro Nork]

I just recived my HID kit and after testing it i found that it wasnt working. has anyone had this problem. I checked the fuse and tried my old bulbs, everything was fine.

Doesnt they work at all? Can you hear the relay in the HID relay harness clicking when you turn on the igniton ? I was in the workshop some hours ago to re-install my HID kit after the turbo install, and the relay for the lights was dead. If I knock on it they the lights go on.. Might be worth a try..

Good luck

I had the same problem after installing my hid. The lights wouldn't fire. What I found was the neg & positive connections for the bulbs were backwards. I switched the polarity and they worked fine.

I had that problem when installing H7/H1 HID on my car, but not the H4 kit on my sled. On my relay harness it is a H4 connector to plug into the the oem connector (Wich only fits one way..). But sure that could be the problem here also. Many kits out there nowadays..

When i first started the sled only one came on. so i checked everything to make sure they were correctly installed, all was good so i tried them again and no lights would work. Its hard to hear any relays with the barker pipe...lol. I will give it a try. Thanks

what HID kit do you have?

Yeah, if one fired you definately got the polarity right. Give it a try. I bought a new relay harness for 15 USD incl shipping. So in a couple weeks i hopefully got my lights back working

what HID kit do you have?

I got it from a company out of Japan, didnt really see a name brand anywhere. Should have known better. It will takes weeks waiting for replacement parts or a new set from them so i ordered a new set from a company in Toronto. They are a lot closer to home so if i have issues it wont take to long to get back up and running.

I have bought all mine from apexcone, they have all worked great and are so easy to hook up. I had trouble with one not going changing beam, turned out the headlight plug would push the plug out instead of go into so it would work intermittantly. Drove me craze finding what was wrong, all connections checked out. ONly found it from back probing plug ins while it was on.

What did you pay for your kit from Japan?
Mine were 75 each shipped for 35watt. I think it was only 10 more for 55 watt. I was worried about them being cheap but they are still working after two years in my truck, van and sled. Need to pick up another set and wondering where the cheapest is.
