HID problem
I have a Lexus SC430 retrofit installed on my civic. First, the headlights were flickering. So I switched the ballasts. It worked for about a week. Now, my headlights are not working. I checked and replaced the fuse. I checked the wiring and I believe there's no loose connection. I checked the bulbs and tested another set and still not working. I bought two new ballasts and replaced the old ones and they're still not working. What am I doing wrong? HELP!

Re: HID problem
hopefully you are not using the stock wiring. you need a separate hid harness with thicker wiring and a relay that takes power directly from the battery. i would also stick with oem ballasts not aftermarket.

Re: HID problem
Thanks for the input. I'm pretty sure the ballasts I bought are OEM. I have thick wiring and I'm also using a relay. I still can't figure out what the problem is.

Re: HID problem
are u sure you are using a wiring harness with a relay?
those thicker extension cable things arent a wiring harness and ur stock relay doesnt count. lol
