Hey Guys, i recently installed a hid kit from ddm tuning replacing my oem fog light bulbs and everything worked fine for awhile, but then i ran into an issue after a car wash one day one of my fogs decided not to work and when i took it to a local shop to get it checked out they said it was the hid bulb was out so i ordered another pair of bulbs to replace the broken ones but when i installed them and test them out they were still not working so i thought it could of been the ballast so i hit up ddm tuning and sent in all the bulbs and ballast i had and got a call saying everything was working fine and saying maybe i should install the relay wire well for the mean time i had my stock bulbs installed and they were working fine but when i finally got my hid kit back i try installing them with the relay wire and when i installed them it it work for about a day cause the next day i decided to wash my car then later that night i was driving and decided to test out my new hid fog lights but ended up realizing they were turning on so after a few trouble should i realize that the hid kit blew a fuse after converting my bulbs back to stock so after replacing the fuse i decided to reinstall the hid kit again but ended up seeing that it was only lighting up on one side and i did all the trouble shooting but i still cant get the hid to work properly. do you guys having any suggestions on why i'm having these problems. right now i'm back to stock bulbs.

 

Holy run on sentences!!!!


I would call the shop where u got the hid kit from. They may be defective.

 

I'm calling the grammar police...

wee-ooo-wee-ooo

Maybe they can help you answer your own question.


The question...

The answer...
ding ding ding

 

lmao ^^^dang

 

how did u install the hid kit on the passenger side fogs? the bulb is compeltely blocked by the washer fluid reservoir. I cant access it through the wheel well

 

Take off the bumper

 

Get underneath it, the wheel well cover is screwed on to the bumper with 10mm screws, take them off, and take off 1 or 2 screws that hold the bottom engine cover that's attached to the bumper and pull it all down, you'll be able to access the foglight easily.

 

i just took the bumper off. it made it a lot easier.

 

Your welcome

 

Imma take take 180's advice. Thanks.

Taking off the bumper requires taking off way too many screws n is a much bigger hassle. I already installed the fogs one driver side. Only one side left

 

Ya 180's advise is better, takin the bumper off is just really easy for me. Takes me like 10 mins. Sorry for the bad advise.

 

Install finished 2 hours ago. quick 15min job, 5 min was to walk 3 blocks to radio shack and get double sided 3M tape for the ballast.
