new HID's. only one working. light for brights always on.......

[7.3coal roller]

so i just got these HID's with a ballast and all the goodies. it is also a motorized bulb so that i can keep my high and low beam operation. this is not my first time doing HID's i just need a wiring schematic for a 2000 f250. i dont have access to alldata or ondemand5 since im not in school for another few weeks. one HID works and the ballast makes the humming noise. the other one doesnt make noise and no light. i did shock the **** out of myself trying to test for power and ground to the bulb so i think the ballast is working. and the light for my brights is always on very dim and when i try to turn the actual brights on the light comes on fully and the lights dont change. can someone please send me a schematic.
Thanks

Hmmmmm. How do u have them wired? I have a similar kit with no issues. Seems like maybe u have some power feeding back to the high beam wire. There should be a relay to power the ballast that gets hooked up to the low beam and then a wire for the high beam on each bulb for the motors.

had to switch the wires around in the harness. now both lights work......until i hit a bump.....then only one works. i have checked all my connections a million times.

I just put HIDs in my truck also and both of the bulbs work on low beam I am not sure if they move or not because it is not dark out here yet but my high beam light is also on real dim with only the low beams on. Any suggestions?

That has to be a connection or something isn't working properly.

Hmmmm. How are they aired up? I have a set in my truck and flex and have no issues. It has to be in the wiring but its kinda hard without having it in front of me. If you can explain how its hooked up wires and relays, I can then better help.

It is plugged in on the driver side to the factory harness. Goes to the relay, which has power from the battery and ground. That plugs into the ballast and there is a plug for the high beam. Wires run across to the passanger side gets grounded and plugged into the second ballast, high beam wire, and a ground wire.

Hmmm. Same as my kit. That's weird. What year is the truck? I'll take a look at my wiring this weekend and see if I can spot anything like a diode or something. If u unplug the ballast and have just the relay harness does it still happen?

I'm sorry I posted a reply I guess it never went through. I got it figured out the high beam and ground wires in the aftermarket relay harness were reversed. So yes it definately was back feeding through the wire. Works great now though!

Nice. Glad u got it figured out.
