Help with projector HID's

rbk001 · July 24th, 2008, 07:22 PM

Alright guys, purchased projectors and HIDs and I have the projectors installed but having trouble with the HID's. I've searched and I havent seen anyone that has anything close to the harness that pilot gave me, so maybe they sent me the wrong one?? Any help is appreciated!

First pic here is of the balast and the H1 bulb.

Heres a pic of one of the harnesses they sent (they sent two different ones). Its just two wires and connects into the other side of the balast. There are 2 of these.

Third pic is of the other harness that they sent. This has 1 fuse and a relay. Only 1 of this harness.

Fourth, close up of the relay

Sooooooo.....would it be safe to just run the harness from the second pic even though there isnt a fuse?? Everyone else I've seen has a fuse.

yes it is safe to run the second pic witout the fuse. the rely is supposed to be for cars that need a constant 12v to the stock headlights. ext. 08 dodge avengers need the rely to keep constant power. our cars do not need it so youll be fine not using the fuse/ rely harness

awesome...so what do I do if those 2 metal ends don't fit into the car's harness?

074gclipse · July 24th, 2008, 08:36 PM

hey bro I got the same harmess I'm running proyectors now, so how did u hook up the red and the black end??

rbk001 · September 7th, 2008, 09:50 AM

I ended up hardwiring them into the the harness. You'll have to snip off the metal ends on the wire and then snip off two of the wires on the harness (i'll go and look under the hood later on today on which colors go where. You'll want to go and get some butt splices (Lowe's or Advance Auto) so you can connect the wires.

edduardo87 · September 7th, 2008, 10:34 AM

can I connect then in the same place where I snip off the harmnes and hooked up the proyector green socket with the white and black wires. here is a pic of what I got no relay no fuse

it should be fine right??

rbk001 · September 7th, 2008, 11:59 AM

You will be fine, you dont need the fuse

Heres what you'll do

Driver side

Red wire(HID) connect to Orange Blue wire from harness (low beam)
Black wire(HID) connect to Black wire from the harness (-)
and the third wire on the harness should be Yellow Red which is for the high beam, leave it be, you wont need it

Passenger Side

Red wire(HID) connect to the White Red wire from the harness
Black wire(HID) connect to the Black wire from the harness
and the third wire is Green Red which won't be used

Great thanks man!!! e-rep

michow · September 8th, 2008, 04:20 PM

where did you buy your HID kit from? i'm guessing your HID kid wasn't plug and play

edduardo87 · September 8th, 2008, 06:42 PM

ebay actually they're plug and play after I cut those stupid terminals that didn't fit the original socket.
