HID bi-xenon help!!!

ok so installed my new kit bi-xenon slim ballast Hid kit and it was pretty damn simple. all was well for the twenty minutes that i drove my truck for the test drive i then parked it in my garage for the weekend.

the problem came a couple of days later when i tried to turn them on with no success. it blew my RH Hi and RH Low fuses. i installed new fuses and they also went. i checked all connections and tried switching the ballasts and nothing.

ive deducted through my limited knowledge that its a RH side ballast is the problem(right?) but would that cause the LH side to also not to work? any suggestions/ideas? ive contacted the seller but he was busy and promised to call me back. till then do you guys have any ideas?

 

Try a different ground? Check that the High/Low modulator/relay does not have water in it.

 

ok so on a side note when i was putting everything back to where it should be. i noticed a humming noise and located at this box. the goes inbetween the factory head light plug and then to the ballast

 

those ballasts look they are made out of plastic dude

 

heres what the whole thing looks like. i put an arrow on what is making the noise. its some kind of regulatory device for the power supply??? im about as eletrically inclined as toddler with a fork and an electical socket

 

eh idk about all that other junk on that kit but my ddm kit has a ballast and a bulb with connections lol 40 bucks and it still is a great kit but mine is a tundra idk about older tacos

 

That box doesn't look common...

 

Bump anybody got an idea?

 

no heat but i did smell something that resembled arc welding so i unhooked the battery and removed the setup from my truck. my conclusion it that the box has either a wiring issue or it somehow go condensation in it from sitting in my garage

Why go through those long, expensive, and short-warranted group buys when you can go here?

 

You'll hear horror stories on anything. Nothing is perfect. Welcome to the real world, unless you don't want to enter it.

 

did you try bigger fuses i know mine said to use at least a 20 i dunno might help

 

I ordered approx 8 sets of HIDs from ddm tuning and out of those 8, one had a bad ballast, which they replaced, and another set came w a bad relay for the bi xenon setup. i would still buy from them because its the best deal you can get.

 

Finally heard from tim yesterday. He's ordered a new set and they will hopefully be here soon.

I definitely agree good customer service is always better than price 3 of the last 4 items I've bought have been defective or missing parts and tims been really good about taking care of the situation.

Just a an example a certain company sent me the wrong bolts in november and I just received the them today 12/30. You would think that they would expedite three shipping in those situations
