Yes, the conector should be like this black red and the white goes into the other terminal

so i did that, and now when i just pull back on the stalk, just the flash to pass feature if thats what you wanna call it, does nothing now. and now when i turn the lights off, the relay or w/e it is that controls the highs and lows make the loud clicking noise like it does when switching between the hi and lo beams. what now

i mean not a huge issue, but i want to make sure everything is right

oh i didnt pay attention to the relay part. no i just got the hi lo harness. the relayed harness really isnt necessary. i've run HID's on this truck since i bought it a year and a half ago and never had a problem. i think you wasted 15 bucks lol

burnt wiring is not fun stuff to play with

thats how i ran my old setup for nearly a year without a single problem. thats why i thought it was funny when i looked at the harness as it was nearly identical to the old harness I had that was custom put together by the guy i bought my projector housings from.
fused and everything

kind of a stupid question, but if you were to change the wires on the actual headlight plug, would that not fix the issue? (switch hi/lo) rather than switching them on that blue connector...

because the hi/lo module receives signal from the high wire, and the low wire, but it doesn't know the difference between the 2 of them... only the placement of the wires... nor is there a difference between the signal/voltage coming out of those wires (stock wiring)

what you could do is use some of those disconnectors, before the headlight plug, so you can unplug, and switch back...

how much time do you have on your hands? 2 wire cuts, 4 strips, 4 crimps, done... take less time than actually changing the bulbs...

and i'm 99% sure that it would be the black wire that is ground

it would be easyer just to change it at the blue hid plug i would contact ddm tech support about the issue if ya cant figure it out its either somthing hooked up wrong or they sent you a bad hi/low controler

the blue conector plugs into the plug that plugs into your headlight bulbs
