    Is this a plug n play? I know on my kit, I had to reverse to plug from the lights to the ballast to get mine to work...

    x2....

    if that doesnt work...try a normal light bulb...

    check the connector for any corrosion also....if your connector is corroded (even from just a little water getting in there) you may need to replace the plug.

    Either that Ron or the relays or ballasts have gone bad but for both sides to go bad (assuming you have one for each side) is kinda weird. Did you make sure the ground wire is down good? Check that, fuses, etc.

    they didnt work in the magnum,so my brother hooked the HID lites up to a voltage regulater n both lites came on.and it is a plug n play.
