HIDs won't work in fogs
 
Full Hid kit from ddmtuning, always worked great for me in te past. My low beams are amazing, 55w 5000k crystal clear white. I tried doing the fogs with the harness and after modifying the housings they won't come on.. Possibly I got a bad kit, anyone else have his happen or know what to do?

1.try plugging the fog light bulbs into ballasts for headlights that you know work.

If this checks out, try reversing polarity for foglight ballasts.

Yeah, or don't do things like putting blinding (not to mention illegal) HID kits in light housings designed for halogen bulbs. That way you won't be that jackass that everybody swears at.

Flip the wires, you may have the polarity wrong. Easy to do, I did it the first time I put my HID's in my headlights. I've got projector low beams as well so don't anybody have a cow.

Yes, if you're going to do it... do it right! :thumb:
