Newbie needs help. (HID related)

[02HoeZ71]

First and foremost, some sick rides on here.

Secondly, Just bought my DDM Tuning kit for my 02 Tahoe. Lows only for now and they don't light up, any suggestions? Help is appreciated.

some times you need to swap the negitive and positive plug on the ballest try that

I read something similar to that somewhere but I'm afraid of blowing the ballast. No need for any of there adapters or wiring harnesses?

Nah, just swap em and you should be good. happened to me, nothing blown and they are still running strong

 

[02HoeZ71]

I'll try it. Thanks.

Ditto, I had the same problem. I have 10,000K slim ballast and they're awesome

Ever Been Shocked by a WET ballast??
Kind of Therapeutic actually...

The Real problem is when you plug in to the stock connector. You should always used the harness that came (at no extra charge) supplied with the ballast, then determine with a test light which is you're positive and negative (on the car) and match the correct side to the HID. Black ground, blue or red positive.

Installation with a relay would be optimum BTW.
