Default Re: HID problem...

Ive got the Pilot HID kits and the left, only left no matter what scenario its hooked up in, will always go out... when its cold, or just starting car up... or whatever. Question is, how are the mccullough kits wired with the relays so they dont throw the lamp out light. Are they prewired with resistors across battery and lamp input to the relay? because if i straight under the hood relay my lights, it takes away the input feedback the computer is looking for to ... not throw the code. Any suggestions other than guessing and adding resistors until it works? and other than scrapping the kit and buying the Mcullough plug and play kit? as i know these are options.

Keep in mind no matter which side the ballast and/and or light are paired on, the left cuts out sometimes intially. I have had 1 of the ballast replaced with same results. Ive tried wiring the capacitor inline LIKE the kit they sell online but it only postpones its shutting off by a few seconds. and throws the code after i turn them off untill the capacitor is out of juice.

Thanks,
Malcolm
