Default Tried to Install DDM HID kit. Both lights DO NOT work!

I received my DDM HID kit, bought the 35W 6000k 9006 bulbs for my lows. Tried to install it today, none of the light would light up. I have swapped the left to right and right to left, no luck.

Reinstall my stock bulbs, it lights up like a champ!

Any suggestions?

Sorry not trying to be a jerk or anything .. just in a rush and wanted to help you out. I have those saved and one of them talks about flipping the connector upside down because GM has it reversed. Have you tried that? Hook it up right? just thoughts before I head out.

Well what all did you buy? Did you get the "dual in/dual out" harness? If not, you need it to run the lows.

Did you hook it up properly?

NICE!! it works!!

But, there are flickers and what do you guys do to keep the connectors tight? Since my my pass. side sometimes does not turn on until i re-plug it and it works great. Time to buy the dual in/ dual out harness?

Its flickering cause you don't have enough power running through the stock headlight harness, you need to run a relay system from your battery to energize them enough.

to make them work with the connector, disassemble the plug using a paper clip. pull out the wires, and flip the connector. reinstall the wires back in with the plug "upside down", and it will plug right back in.

thats what i did with mine.
