h.i.d. problem

[t.rob305]

can anybody help me???? i have a 04 f-350 drw 6.0l i installed a h.i.d. kit but the damn things wont stop flickering. i contacted the company i got them from and they sent me a troubleshooting guide but it didnt help. they sent me a new kit and i put it in and it still does it. does anybody know what is the cause of this or better yet a way to fix it.

does your truck have daytime running lights?

which ones are they?
I know fords have a flickering problem with HIDs a lot, I think it has something to do with the ballast though I dont know much about HIDs

[t.rob305]

@brinker no it dont have daytime running lights.
@atvrider93 they are xentec 35w 8000k

check power and ground, if they are not good light will flicker,
if that dosnt help put a relay

my headlights are ONEX hid's and my fogs are ddmtuning hid's. the onex flick very slightly, you can barely tell. but its with the ground and power. i have screwed with mine and cant get them to stop and i have a relay

the flickering is caused by a hate to say it...but a "cheaper" brand i have ran ddm tunning for all of lights and no flickering at all. i would look at just investing in new ballast...sorry dude

oh boy....what kind of relay are you thinking about getting? YOU DO NOT NEED THE ERROR ELIMINATOR RELAY! just the main wiring harness, plus the hi/low converter (if you got that.)
yeah that quote kinda hold true for anything in life....
