    What size relay do you have and how are the positive wires connected from the lights to the relay? It looks like those conversion kits use about 6 amps for start up and about 3.5 amps to run. If you have a 30a relay that should be able to power all 3 at once. I just wired up 3 - 35w HID's and they are running off a single 30a relay with a 15 amp fuse and they are having no issues

    Cory, try wiring each light first to make sure they even work. Then i would double check the grounds. A multi meter is your friend

    I'm not sure on relay amp, they came with the kits from that ********** group buy...I'm gonna double check that today...thinking the gauge wire (16) might be too small to power three. That's what came prewired in the kit.

    Edit* what I can't type g g lighting ^^^^^ just ******* showed up...lol

    I checked all lights a lil bit ago on another guys ballasts, that's how we figured the orig ballast didn't work.

    I will report back later today....



    Glamis baby one more day! :taco:

    If you are running all 3 off (1) 16g wire yes that is too small. I am running 14g wire for all 3 of my lights. From what I understand 14g wire has a max of 15 amps, your 3 lights should be pulling around 18amps at start up wich is too much for 16g wire

    make sure your transfer case bolts are tight too, really easy to overlook those
