so i just put in a set of HIDs from DDM tuning.

after two days, the driver side light went out. the temp in columbia, mo hasn't been below 40*F. so i don't think the weather has anything to do with it.

i did put in the 55w 8000K set with the relay.

maybe i wired it wrong? i wanted to see if it was something on my end that got messed up other than blaming DDM right off the bat.

anything you guys could suggest? maybe a diagram of the correct wiring, cause i was going off of wiring diagrams and instructions off other cars forums... i know bad idea.

please help!

No..it's not the wiring. If it was you wouldn't have any lights. I suspect a bad ballast or bulb. You mentioned that the drivers side went out, so I assume that the passenger side works? If so, have you swapped the bulbs? Because if the passenger side bulb works on the driver side ballast then obviously its the bulb that is defective. But if it still doesn't work then def. it's the ballast.

Hope you get it resolved...

DDM has a life time warranty, right? Since it's only been a short while that you've had the HID kit you shouldn't have any problem resolving this with them. Good luck!
