HIDs only have High beam
Sunday, September 11, 2011 3:07 PM
I just put HIDs in my car and they work. However there causing the the headlights to stay on High no matter what. They are a High/Low kit.
Has anyone else had this problem?

2 things can cause this

1. malfunctioning bulb motor
2. relay wired in reverse for hi/low beams singal (or not even wired at all or incorrectly for lows)

Now that its dark I do in fact I have drivers side high/ low, but not passenger side, and it still only shows high beam on the dash. Would a relayed wired in reverse still cause this? Im pretty sure there both wired up the same, but Ill have to double check in daylight

Definitely not the wiring.....Could it be the relay?

like i told you before. most likely it is a relay. there's 2 sets of wires going into ballast, there's a good chance that 1 of them is cross connected between highs and lows
after all it was made in china and those poor bastards don't have a very good understanding on how to wire up relays

Switched headlights to the other side and both have hi/low, but not when there on their side...... So it cant be the wiring.
