8000K HID kit

I just got my HID kits not long ago.. but when I try to install it, it would light up.???
My HID kits are only for low beam, I think I connected everything right... but I am wondering how come it won't light up?

I am not sure how am I suppose to connect it?
coz I only have the low beam HID rite?
and the connector for the power has three wires, black, red and white. and the bulbs only have two wires, black and red.. so I am not sure how can I do it?

yes... but that's only for the connector... my bulbs only have two wires, red and black... so I am not sure where the white wire from the connector goes?

what kind of kit is it?

if the kit connects the positive and ground directly to the battery, then the white wire could be for the headlight on off relay

tell us what kit, and pics if possible

and most hid kits tells you to test the setup before attaching it to your body

my catz kit used the factory bulb connections, so it didn't need one

my xenodepot kit came with the relay all wired up and ready to go

take a pic of the stuff you got, it'll be easier to figure out than sitting here describing it
