Need HID help!!!

I have DDM Tuning 55W slims Bi-Xenon kit installed and have lots of problems turning on the headlights. I have to flick the headlight switch about 10 times before both lights go on. I have checked all the wiring, and double checked. I have used DDM troubleshooter and no resolve. DDM have already swapped me new harness, new ballasts. The only thing left to replace are the bulbs. Could this be my problem, bad hid bulbs.

Any input will be appreciated.

 

It sounds like a power problem to me. Your stock headlights worked fine, ya?

 

your battery may be weak. this happens alot when there isnt enough juice in tha battery to kick start tha ballast. are you turning your lights on before you start your truck or after??

 

Brand new battery. It does it either way. I normally turn on my headlights after the truck is started. Flipping my high beams sometimes makes them start faster.

 

Haven't taken off the HID's and tried the stock bulbs.

By the way...DDM told me that I might need to install a dead bulb on the passenger side!!!

 

Send them back and buy a better quality kit. I've heard nothing but bad things about DDM.

 

About their service maybe. Cant really beat a lifetime warranty. I have 4 of their kits on my truck with no problems at all.

 

Same here. I have no problems with their fog kit.

The upside is that they're just 2 blocks from where I work, but have no time to go.

 

bulbs.

 

X2

i have 5 of their kits on my truck and have never had any problems. and definitely cant beat a lifetime warranty!

 

Well here's an update. Just came from DDM and had my bulbs replaced and still have the same problem. Now they said that some Toyota's are coming up with issues. They told me that I need to run a resistance on the passenger side headlight connector. Would this be true? I think they might be bullshitting me....

 

Maybe try the 35w kit?

 

I have never heard of that before. My kits (and im pretty sure slimcubbys kits) all work fine without running a resistance on the other side. Try to get your money back from DDM and buy a kit from one of us. Slimcubby has a GB going right now for his kits. We both offer a one year warranty with our kits. DDM is a perfect example of "You get what you pay for."

 

I agree. Im running DDM's 35w kit and its plenty bright!

 

55w is definitely to much for street driving. 35w is plenty bright.
